[QUOTE="Acreage T250, post: 131026, member: 22541"] I had leaking spools seals so I replaced lift & tilt. Getting the lift spool removed from the back side was a PITA after removing both hoses to the RHS motor and the one hard line to the tilt cylinder....such a pleasure. It had all 4 detent balls and both springs and float worked fine before. I replaced the balls as a noticed some flat spots developing. I was in a bind to the machine operational during the recent long weekend so OEM balls were not available. I noticed the balls were 3/32" dia., which is the same as used in a 6200 bearing, so that what I used. I had to make ball/spring compressor from a cheap 6" spring clamp which worked as getting these balls installed which is a PITA with out some sort of tool. The issue I noticed is when in float the arms go down then slowly want to drift up. If I hold the pedal down with my foot it works as it is supposed to. It locks in fine with the detent although it sometimes pops out of float if I hit some bad bumps. I did grease the inside of the detent sleeve so that may not help it staying put but I'm at a loss with needing to hold it to stop the upward drift. [/QUOTE]
