Check with an AGCO dealer first, they have a decent network of dealers who may have what your looking for. I’ve found several parts that I needed that way for my 160 and D17 series I.

What kind of issue are you having? Depending on the model, filter locations are different. My 160 has the large filter canister just behind the radiator on the right side. Also a transmission/hydraulic sump filter right below the right side of the seat. It is a fragile plastic filter that is no longer available. Clean it gently. There is also a possibly its sucking air which will cause the hydraulics not to work. One location to check is near the bell housing where the tractor would be split. There is a hose coupling connecting the sump pipe and the pipe to the filter. If the hose is cracked or the clamps are loose then there is a good chance its sucking air there. Does your remotes work? Need some more info on what’s going on.

my 160 by the way i have 2 of them. lift arms moves slow only above 1200 rpm and will not lift much weight. my filter is under the fuel tank. every this you mention i check and the remotes don't work if i could get parts i would over haul the whole system even the block under the seat. both my 160's are 1970

Doing a little housecleaning and found a book I didn't realize I had. An Official Allis-Chalmers Farm Equipment service manual for models One-Sixty/160 and 6040 tractors. Brand new 40 years old never used.

John, if Dr Allis is willing to sell that you need to buy that manual.
John, lets try something simple. You have had the system open which means that if you haven’t bled the system, air lock could be causing your problem. My lift arms and remotes did not function after I split the tractor to do a engine rebuild. The easiest way I found was to place a hydraulic fitting with a hose long enough to reach into a 5 gallon bucket or suitable container into the top rear remote. Operate the hydraulic lever back and forth until a full amount of hydraulic fluid shoots out of the hose and into the container. Switch to the bottom remote and repeat the process. It only took 2 cycles for mine to shoot out a full stream. Once I got full flow and no air on both remotes all hydraulic functions returned to normal. Lift arms and remotes worked as they should. Make sure your hydraulic fluid is full before and after the procedure. Let me know the results. By the way, you have a One-Sixty which is the earlier model. Filter locations are different versus the 160 that I have which is a newer model.

If I have a customer with a 160 that has hyd. problems i check all filters ,bleed pump at pump ,then put flow rater on pump to see what it is doing first .

AC720Man i did what you suggestion no air i took the plug that you fill hyd. oil in and ran the hose back in the tranmission. had no pressure just a constant flow .I bet that pump is not building pressure.

If you can flow rate the pump then u will know for sure what pump is doing ,if pump is good set flow meter up on remote check pressure and flow ( gallons pre min) ,
