We recently acquired a big old 1967 IH Hough Payloader H400 (see picture),
All works ok except for Hydraulic system, is very slow and levers very stiff:
Lifting/lowering/tipping bucket takes ages.
This is our first Hough and we are not sure what is the cause
To get around the levers stiffness we want to retrofit the machine with Hydraulic controls, Ideally a Joystick type, can someone please advise us:
1. is the retrofit possible
2. does anyone knows of an easy hydraulic sys to install
3. any companies that supply such systems
Any input is greatly appreciated.
