JD60 Loader Woes

[Runner2002]

The hard lines that cross the loader just behind the bucket are shot. There a little strange, they have a standard fitting on one end and a square block on the other with a tapped hole. Any idea where I could buy some or get some made? Or can I just use a flexible line instead? Theyæ±*e about 25 inches long and soft lines connect to both ends of the hard line. Thanks.

Sounds like all new flex will be the cheapest and fastest. Plus it will work fine.

There will also be another square block mid way in the line that is a "Tee" each hard line connects to two cylinders. Four hard lines total.
John Deere wants $250 for one line. If you want hard lines get a price at hydraulics shop. They might have to make them two piece, joined by the tee.
All soft lines (hoses) will be the cheapest option.
