Hmm, the joke's on me because mine doesn't have any holes in the loader mast square tube. Maybe it's just for the 70A but not the 70, contrary to JD's online parts catalog.
I should have the rebuilt bucket cylinder back for the weekend; I'll get the loader assembled and on the tractor and take another look at the whole thing all together.
On the 55 series tractors like mine the square tube is one long bar that goes through the frame in one piece from side to side. The loader mount bracket on the far side is then bolted on to the bar and that's where the bolt hole is used. Your 790 instead uses two separate short tubes that mount individually on each side, so you do not have that bolt hole. The 770/790 uses a different metal hose clip, M78725. It mounts to the loader arm as shown in the attachment.
