Sideshift Difficulties.

Have two trucks (same ones as previous) that are having odd problems. The sideshift, with a load, will shift one direction fine; start back the other way, it works ok untill the operator stops. It then stalls there. It has to be shifted in the opposite direction slightly to continue. Carriage bearings and slides are ok, pumps have been replaced in an attempt to correct the problem, fluid and filters have been recently changed, and the carriage is shimmed ok. We're scratching our heads.

There are two manifolds on this particular machine; the main one under the hood and a second smaller one mounted on a standoff on the carriage. Would it be in the main block or the secondary, do you think?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
