Messaged them and they said they fixed the issue, it was low on fluid. I doubt that but i will still offer the 1,000 and buy it if they accept

I would just buy it after an Testdrive with all hydraulic functions.

 

If the hydo fluid was that low, that the rear only goes low i would check it closely for any leaks 

and hopefully it does not have any harder wear because of that issue.

a hydraulic low on fluid can wear quick while sucking air.

 

Without a testdrive or a demonstration of it, and the whole fuction i would max rate it at 600- 800$

hydraulic parts can be quickly very expensive to fix.

the bucket can be fixed with a new Steelplate, that‘s not an complete KO criteria in my opinion.

but you shall be able to fix it.

 

just my 2 cents.

Ok so I need help.....as always.,,,,,

   I tried to install a sleeve and a pulley on the 1257 Tractor. Otherwise known as 19. The other half of Covid, the 310-8. You may remember, I got both tractors in the 3rd week of March from the original owners....    anyways........Covid     19    Each one has a name.

 

What am I missing??? There is a space of about 3/8 of an inch between the clips,and the clutch disc. I put the PTO bearing sleeve on, and the clips are not even close....What gives? What am I missing, or what do I need...Seems awful weird....HELP WH scientists

Johnny, it goes sleeve, Disc, then those tabs and bolts to hold it to the tapped ring.  Will that take up the extra room?
