yikes! To my eyes you would be silly to try and put those gears back in service. Maybe you could save the housing but the torque tube is toast and a complete axle would probably be the cheapest if you could find a donor mog. Bummer man, I'm going to look at my tube/diff bolts after this.

have you considered the starter solenoid? Could be a normal starter failure.

Were the connections loose? Sounded a lot like that to me. Also, if you adjust the relief valve up it will lift the front end no problem, but everything comes with a tradeoff.

sounds like a loose connection at the hoses front left. Check that those are tight. The balls in the quick connects can act like check valves if loose.

It's possible to repair them. I just did as luck would have it. The motor had water intrusion and the rust seized it. No electrical damage so I disassembled and cleaned, repainted the insides, replaced the bearings just because I could (easy cause of an electric motor shop locally but they...

Just my .02 about LED bulbs. They are not worth the trouble or money in low power indicator type circuits. Instrument cluster and the like. The standard incandescent are really durable and last a very long time. My experience with led ba9 and ba7 and 194s and such is they flicker and stop...

Yes, same as the bucket and loader teeth. Extremely standard JD pattern if I remember right. It's installed upside down, but I figured I'd try it that way first. Pretty minor angle difference, don't think it matters much.

This thread has been quiet. Not sure if any of you received a ripper tooth with your SEE but I did. I had not used it until this most recent project. About 750 feet of 5 foot deep trench for utilities in quite rocky soil as it turned out. the digging was pretty slow until I installed the tooth...

While we're on the subject of self lifting and hydraulic connectors and what not, does anyone know the name of the quick disconnect style for the backhoe on a SEE? Its a -14 jic which is strange enough but the QD variety is new to me? Disregard, I'm going to just find an easy available. Quick...

Would love to follow suit but the wheel widening is a barrier,

I don’t know. If you want to ship it there, you should contact some shipping people‘s and get a quote, I’ll help load it, but I have too many irons in the fire to do that legwork for you. Sorry.

It's been off for a couple years. Don't need the extra weight. When something falls from the sky whilst I'm sitting in it, I'll take it as a sign. Looks better without also.

Anybody want my FOPS? Free with pick up. 🤪

My advice... screw the pressure relief in until you can lift the front off the ground. I've been using mine like that for three years. Also get rid of those check valves mentioned, totally counterproductive. Sometimes I have to back off the controls when I get belt squeal on the pump, but...
