You need to determine where the oil is leaking from. You say it leaks from the bottom- do you mean the bottom of the vertical shaft, or bottom of the rear of the coupler? You mention 'turn them on'- do you mean turning the lever that moves that vertical shaft to lock the coupler in place? You could have a bad o-ring or two on that shaft. You can knock off the top cap, and replace those rings plus the cap. The rebuild kit, the price you mention, is not just o-rings. It includes a new 'carriage', I think it is called, maybe 'basket'- anyway- it is the metal guts of the coupler. Likely not worn out. O-rings should suffice to fix most leaks. Also, if the oil is coming from the rear of the coupler, are both the o-ring and the white plastic ring in good shape? That is the usual cause of leakage- especially if the hose disconnected under pressure. Often, one or the other part flies out upon disconnect. Big advantage to have multiple couplers on a tractor, (I have triple remotes on three field tractors, even though only one machine needs three, while several need two) or carry a few rings in the tool box, along with a pick and WD40. Easy to replace in the field.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
