546cowboy 301 #2 Posted May 10, 2014 Spring?????????????? Does a C-141 have a hydro lift? Is that what you mean? A hydro lift has a control valve on the left side of the tractor and four hoses going to it. If the plow won't lift and you don't see fluid all over under the tractor, you have a bad cylinder or control valve. Since I have never owned a C-141 I'm only guessing.

Kelly 1,029 #4 Posted May 10, 2014 just pull the hyd. lift off and put a manual lift arm on it, about a 20 min. job, and your problem you have been talking about all spring will be gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmsgaffer 2,043 #6 Posted May 11, 2014 Take pictures of your system. I think -since you mention a broken frame- your rockshaft is broken. There is an arm under the tractor that the accessories attach to, that goes to the lift cylinder (by your left leg when sitting on the tractor). You probably sheered it and that's why fluid is not leaking everywhere and it stopped lifting. When you find out what is actually broken, you can post an ad in the wanted section for that specific part. If you never find out what is actually broken, you might as well just buy a new tractor. Please take the time to write well thought out posts. If you read them aloud to yourself, you will better be able to tell if we can understand them or not. Its hard to diagnose a tractor problem with very limited description via text on a forum. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
