Hi all, any help would be greatly appreciated. Our ld 85 is gradually turning over when raised, it is worst when the alignment ram is fully extended... oil seems to be pushed from alignment to turnover. I have fitted new seals in the turnover ram but not the alignment, I am thinking the problem is in the sequencing valve. I had a look at it today but everything seemed ok in it so I’m reluctant to spend the £240 on a repair kit, new valve incidentally is £1016!! Would adjusting the small allen nut have any effect?

Have a search for plough turnover valve. Flowfit hydraulics of Ludlow have a range at a quarter of your quoted price.
Thanks, just had a look on Flowfit website, the valve I need seems to be about half the price of a KV so definitely an option if I have to go down that route.
I‘ve been tinkering with the adjuster this morning, no luck there.
Anyone else any ideas? TIA.
