remote valve

Where can I get a remote valve rebuild kit or is it better to get a new one? Can you even get a new one?

thanks

Most of those just use O rings.

Just O ringsin mine. Well one stem seal thingy where the rod comes out of the remote valve on mine.
You can get em all from your IH dealer if an IH remote valve.

Not sure which tractor you have, but on my 826, I couldn't find a new one. They are pretty simple to remove, tear apart, clean and reseal, but here is something to forewarn you.

My problem was that after about three times coming apart, with all new o-rings each time, both mine still leaked. Puked, in fact. I could see nothing obvious in the internal hard parts to cause it, but in desperation, I got a used one and it has been fine so far for about 6 months. I have a manual for the tractor, and it isn't brain surgery for someone like me who has rebuilt automatic transmissions to do a simple item like the remote... but no matter what precautions or care I took, they always leaked right away after the "rebuild." Kinda took me down a few notches, even in that legendary status in my own mind! ( : < ).

From what I have learned, this is an uncommon occurrence, so you shouldn't be overly worried. Just be sure to clean everything well, look closely at everything, take care not to nick an o-ring and use plenty of oil on assembly.

But then again, you probably shouldn't listen to me, as my track record so far does not bear too much scrutiny or instill much confidence! ( : < (

Are you sure you used the correct sized Orings? As I recall mine were not standard sized, but close.

Yep! Sourced direct from Case IH and scrutinized against what was originally there. I now have times to fool with them and perhaps get a more experienced set of eyes looking at the units. Maybe they can see a problem. Like I said, from most reports, rebuilding the remotes is usually a straightforward deal. Either I was an idiot three times in a row, there's some flaw I didn't see, or both.
