Replacement parts for 3 point & kwik way loader

When I purchased my GT18, use to belong to my wife's dad, it was missing the electric actuator for the 3 point hitch (Model # 917.253130). Does anyone know what brand and model # that goes with the 3 point hitch or an aftermarket one?

Also the loader (kwik way, Model # 100.262301) was missing the hydraulic pump, some idiot removed it and rigged up a power steering pump on it. According to the manual, it's was a MTE Model C210. I did some research and found that a C8 Delta Power Hydraulic Pump, item code 6105021, from the Hydraulic store is a direct replacement. Can anyone tell me if this is true or is there another alterative?

Would like to get them working again and any help would be greatly appreciated

You are correct on the Delta C8 pump. I recently refurbished my Kwik Way Loader and ordered that pump from a local distributor. It works well.
Post some pics when you get it working.

Thanks for verifying my research for the replacement pump. Now hopefully I can to get it ordered in the next 2 weeks, remove the mower deck, start mounting the loader and get it working. Do you know what size pulley I need to mount on the pump? Yes, I will post some pictures when I get it working.

I used a 4" OD pulley with a 7/16" bore. The pump has an unusual size shaft and a 7/16" bore for the pulley was somewhat hard to find. Best purchase a tapered bushing for that pulley.

If you will provide your email address, I'll send you a photo of my Sears ST16 with loader. I am unable to post an image on this site from my desktop.

I have ordered a new hydraulic pump for the Kwik Way loader and while I'm waiting for it, I have the loader mounted on my GT18 tractor but, discovered a new problem. The hydraulic control valves are stuck and one cover for one of the valves is broken off. Does anyone know if or where I can get a new 2 spool control valve unit or a direct replacement? Also I notice that the hose from the reservoir tank to pump is missing and has been for some time. What should I use to clean the inside of the reservoir before I attach new hose and fill with new fluid?

hi 77, dont know much about this kind of stuff, but i did buy a valve for a log splitter and couple hoses from this place few years ago, may have what you need. www.surpluscenter.com hope this helps / tim
