Bad Boy Pump Replacement

[oologahan]

The left side pump went out on my 2009 7200AOS with the 35hp CAT diesel. I bought a new pump from Bad Boy and drained the fluid, installed new filters (filled with oil and reinstalled the pump with a new belt. I have the rear wheels jacked up and am having trouble getting the new pump to turn the wheel. I have tried opening the valve and bleeding the air, but so far no luck. Is it possible I switched the hoses to the hydro gear wheel motor?

Just had a brain fart. I was loosening the black hex bolt on top of the pump to try and purge the air instead of the bolt with the hole through it on the outer side of the pump. All is well. Thanks
