Kit Cleans Up Older Deere Hydraulic Mess
Scott Grove cleaned up leaky hydraulic valves on his older Deere tractors with a simple insert. The long-standing problem is one the company has yet to fix. Grove says it forces him and other owners of Deere tractors to replace O-rings on a regular basis, only to have the mess return. Grove’s fix eliminated the mess and the need to replace parts.
With the Grove Conversion kit:
Convert to ISO with easy push-pull connection
Couplers connect under residual pressure with breakaway feature
Kits available for 10 through 70 series John Deere tractors manufactured from 1961 through 1996
Inserts are made in the USA. This product may be protected under US Patent 10,760,725 B2 and other patents pending.
Installation consists of stripping the OEM outlets down to the block, removing the barrels and O-rings, and replacing them with the inserts. Grove then adds the after-market ISO coupler that threads into the insert.
Installation instructions can be found on the Wapsi Website.
Kits for 10 series are priced at $315, kits for 20-40 series are priced at $329, and kits for 50-70 series are priced at $355. Grove suggests checking with the local Deere dealer or calling Wapsi Innovations directly.
