Ernie: I had this happen with my 560, 30 years ago. The control valve for these tractors were basically the same valve as used on 300, 400, 350, 450, 230, 240, 340, 460 and 560. In the control valve for draft control hitch is different in that it has these spider gears with a control lever on each side. One of these levers hooks to your hand position control, the other side hooks into side of lift cylinder. The early ones used cable control and later models used a series of rods with ball and socket conections.

When that spider goes the conection between darft control and position lever is lost causing hitch to hunt continuously. I did price parts at the time, however my hitch was worn completely out. I replaced the valve with a regular valve off a 300, bought a new M type swinging drawbar. By then I had 656 with 3 point and no 2 point equipmnt. I have a feeling his only source for parts will be scrap yard. I cant remember for sure but I think that was only source 30 years ago. Quite frankly I didn't try very hard.
