Hey Guys
I busted one of the loader hydro hard lines attached to the inside of the loader frame today. There is a locater clamp that holds the 4 lines in place. This clamp actually deforms (squishes) the steel hose a bit and that is where the hose failed (something you 30 series guys may want to have a look at). Most of the other lines are slightly squished as well, I guess they could go at any time too? Anyone ever pop one of these steel lines? Know how much they cost? I am tempted to convert it over to rubber or at least find a way to avoid the rubbing/deformation of these lines after I get a new steel line. I am sure these steel lines are are big $$ because of the multiple fittings and bends. Any $ info or other info welcome. Thanks.
