after you found out how to release the pressure on the lift did the steering issue remain or did it straighten it self out too??
as best as I know ,yes the spring around the seal lips goes toward the pressure. I have seen where two seals were stacked for some reason and the same direction on both were as above also. yeah 14 years is beyond the best used by date. hahahaa
just as a thought you might want to consider one of the chinese tractors I have had just a filter screen I believe on the return line for filteration. I had no idea what the micron rating was . So I bought a approperate filter housing and a 10 micron hydraulic filter with a more than ample flow rate and replaced the screen filter. If you have room to do this it might be a improvement from stock and easier to repalce a screw on filter than to disassemble a filter housing and clean the screen and dump the whole hydro system. since you will need to drain the system now would be the time to consider this.
Is that a steering cylinder? I know this is apples and oranges but a factory seal kit for my log splitter was 200 bucks, I measured and guessed and got a generic repair kit off amazon 10 bucks perfect fit. so it might be well worth measuring and doing some searching around. oh what tractor is that on?
there is nothing wrong running propane for sure ,everything engine wise lasts longer,the only downside is a slight power loss over gas. I guess where you are at you do not have clay soil, if slightly wet clay would never come out of a 4 inch bucket, sometime it sticks bad enought in my 24 incher. 2 miles hope you never have to look for a leak, so I assume that you are running a fluid thru a heat exchanger ? for climate control.
yes I have a 2005 lenar (dong feng) le204a and a 2006 foton ft504a ,a 2001 JCB 214 backhoe and a 2019 wacker neuson sw-20 skid steer plus various attachments for each.
thinking about repairs on the 2006 ft 504a, I had to resolder the filler neck on the rediator .I had to replace the tachometer pick up, That tractor has a compressor for air brakes if you were pulling a trailer so equiped. Never used it for that ,blow up tires can run a nail gun which has been handy. But the orginal air filter was just a small housing of foam kinda like a lawn mower uses,removed that and plumbed into clean air side of air filter for engine, now engine oil stays cleaner longer. replaced plastic fuel strainer bowl with a ford 8n type housing which is glass.just little stuff tractor has around 1000 hrs .on it. replaced filter screen on hydros and put in a 10 micron screw on filter just cause I thought the filter was better than the screen. Can not say to much bad about it.
I do not know if these are what you would call major repairs but on my 2005 dong feng 204a when new and got worse with time start circuit to starter,around 200 hrs added starter relay to hot from key switch to solenoid on starter . fixed it. around 700 hrs . water pump fan shaft sheared ,launched fan into radiator,pump not frozen. bad shaft I guess . replaced pump had 3 radiator tubes soldered up to fix leaks,still cools well without the 3 tubes. about 800 hours replaced seal and piston on 3 pt. lift. close to 1000 hrs . on now and no issues currently. will update later on 2006 foton ft 504a tractor.
