Ok....NOW I've done it

[Theron W]

Ok...so I suppose I might have been a bit too aggressive while plowing down a tree and have managed to rip out part of my hydraulic system.
Can anyone tell me what these parts used to be and where I might best find their replacements?

This is a 360DTC by the way....

Thanks for your help! I love this forum.....

looks like fluid return pipe and hydro filter. Look online for parts. I have seen some links for ads on this site,

I am posting here because the phrase OK, now I have done it, lol, happens more then I would like to admit. In other words keep your sense of humour as anyone who owns a tractor will sooner or later say, "OK, now I have done it."

There was a thread or two on bottom skid plates for tractors that was interesting.

NAPA will have the filter - you should look for one for a FT 360DTC or a Montana 3840

You may also check with a dealer if you have an LS dealer in your area. LS made the 360DTC.

Have you checked to see if you can put the pipe back in place? It may not need replacing if it is only bent.

Not with those pics.

Agreed that it looks like fluid return pipe and filter. I got my hydro filter I think at Napa. I may have ordered it from Ebay. Can't remember. There is a thread on this site that some of us were posting the part numbers for these tractors. Search for either 360 or 390 filters. Napa can cross reference the #s, but a few folks had already done some cross referencing to Wix and some other brands.

With that pipe bent that bad, I bet it will need replaced. You'll probably have to tear it out of there and take it somewhere to have it remade. The only thing is I think on that one pipe there is a place the filter screws into, so that will be difficult to remake.

Man I've always feared that happening to either the loader hoses on the bottom or that very pipe. A skid plate would be awesome if it wasn't in the way of changing the hydro filters. I'll have to search around since there was a reference to some talk of skid plates on here.

Good luck.

Not bad money at all for a learning curve. I used to remove the mower deck on my Kubota B7800 by hooking a chain to the front weight bracket and lifting the tractor with an 85 HP bigger tractor bucket. Knowlege not to do that cost me $550. You got away cheap.
Keep us posted on the outcome and add photos along the way if you can.
