[QUOTE="JeremyG, post: 133332, member: 24512"] Thanks again! I guessed you probably weren't as much of a lay mechanic as I am! Am I right in thinking that the pump seal kit isn't really needed unless you are dismantling the whole thing? So if I just wanted to replace the seal preemptively that's really all I need to buy? As I said I have bought the Reman pump for the left side plus new O rings for both pumps where they fit to the gear casing. Or should I also get the snap rings and washers plus seal if I decide to do the RH? The RH pump doesn't seem to have any issue so I'm not expecting to find anything wrong once I open it up. I see that there is quite a lot of info on the O rings & parts etc, thanks for pointing that out. I see their O rings are the Duro 90. The cab lowering mechanical arrangement does look complicated which is why I didn't attempt it even with a forklift on hand. I was hoping there was a way. Do you think it would be possible to chain up the boom against the cab pins using the turnbuckles so nothing can move? Then lower it with the forklift? I'm assuming once the bolts at the back of the cab are removed the whole thing will fall forwards naturally? I can manage for this job but it would be good to figure out some arrangement for if there's a next time. I don't understand what function the chains have in your arrangement? Just a precaution? I see you have tire tracks. I was going to buy some chains for next winter, probably a bit cheaper than tracks I guess. On level ground it's fine for plowing but we have a slope, once that gets iced up it's all over the place. Thanks again I appreciate the time. [/QUOTE]
