Help me match the hydro fittings...

[buyerjohn]

I'm trying to get a grapple connected. Here's what I have:

tractor side: 2 Safeway female fittings S45-3 - I prefer not to change these.

grapple side: Pioneer 8010-4 1/2-14 male and female. I'd like to remove these and add two male Safeway S41-3, S20 Male Tip Half.

Will the 2 male S41-3 parts just screw onto the male threads that I remove the Pioneer fittings from? I think the S41-3 screws onto a 3/8" male thread but not sure.

Can you tell from the Pioneer part number what size the male threads are that the Pioneer fittings are currently screwed onto?

thanks.

So i ordered from DiscountHydraulicHose.com ...would never use them again.

Ordered on 5/9 and finally shipped on 5/19 (not yet received). Despite 3 phone calls to get an update and promises of a return call/response with a specific ship date, I was never contacted. Also, I wasn't notified the items weren't in stock until I called.

Overall, not a good experience.

:shocked:
I had great experience with this place. Ordered and received within a few days.
Price was half what Deere wanted too.
Sorry to hear you were disappointed. Not everyone has everything in stock. But notification of stock shortage is a polite thing to do...always!

I will order from them again.

John,

I'm very sorry to hear your experience was less than great.

In most cases, orders ship within 1-2 business days, and backorders are filled in less than a week. Recently, however, there have been some longer than usual delays in receiving some merchandise from our suppliers. Some items have been difficult to get in a timely manner because of increased demand and manufacturer inventories that were allowed to dwindle during the recent recession.

While shipping delays are sometimes unavoidable, there is no excuse for not communicating with you clearly about the status your order. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you.

If you wish to speak to me directly about your order, please feel free to contact me by email (ken@discounthydraulichose.com) or by phone at 800-535-1302.

We have recently transferred another employee into our customer service department so that we can be more responsive to issues like this one. We are also looking at automating some of our processes so we can process your orders more efficiently and give you more detailed and more timely information about the status of your order.

I hope you will give us another chance to win your business. I promise we will do everything in our power to make your next experience a positive one.

a follow up: one of the fittings failed 4/2012 - changed them out to Pioneer.
