Title: $500 + Jigsaw Puzzle
Post by: Zuma on November 22, 2016, 10:30:55 pm
And that's for just six of the hoses and the sleeve. :o
The worst was slamming the pins loose in order
to get to at the piston connections. OH and the real
pis# off --the folks that screwed up the hose orders >:(
TWICE--and the bone head at the auto parts store
that said  "sure I have the exact same diameter hose" >:(
All in all, not to bad for a flintknapping potato digger. :)
Zuma
Oh and the $50 for fluid >:(

A real design flaw here. The pinch is what
caused the hose failures.

 Actually it's so refined that I think you could use it for skin lotion.

I own a John Deer 410C front end loader/backhoe. Having replaced most of the hoses on that over time, the price that you paid is in the ballpark.

And that ain't no potato picker as my father in law owns a potato farm, lol.  Hoses for that costs a little bit more.

Happy Thanksgiving Don.

I used to never have to oil my workshoes.Just kept leaking and spilling hydraulic fluid on them changing couplers with farm equipment.
