good evening fellows .ill get straight to the point. i have a 1970 TEREX 72-31 wheel loader that is currently spewing all my hydraulic fluid out of what looks to be a vent hose coming out of tranny ..... any ideal what is causes this?????
My guess is the hydraulic pump is mounted to the bell housing with seal leaking into tranny
That would be my guess also
Would it be costly to repair?? Or is this an easy fix????
It sounds simple on the internet depending on how big that pump is, installation is reverse of removal. Is your hydraulic fluid level dropping?
Oh yes!!! Can’t Keep fluid in it!!!! The higher I rev engine the more it spews!!!
Pump is gone and dumping into Transmission. Will need new pump. Have seen it lots of times on those style units. Hyd. fluid goes down and tranny goes up. Simon
But it still lifts as it should!!! Very strong!!!
It might be possible to rebuild pump with new seal but not knowing what type of pump it is that would just be a guess!
I had the same situation, it was a commercial gear pump and pump had some wear but hydraulic shop said it was ok so we put a new seal in and it seems fine now.
I suppose a backwoods fix would be to put the vent line into the hydraulic oil fill port.
Well if I had a few weeks left in the working season I would be tempted to do that just to get the work done then pull it in the barn and fix it during the winter.
big thanx to all !!!!! i am taking the canopy off so i can get in my shop and i will be reporting back soon !!!!!THANX AND GOD BLESS!!!!!
all right fellows i took pump off and had it resealed and tested ,put it back on and run it all day and it seems to have fixed it !!!! thanx a million for all the help!!!
Awesome How was it to get at one that machine
Glad to hear
