Has anyone made a list that says what those parts are? I've researched various ones at different times, but haven't had the time to search everywhere on TBN (as if I knew where to start!).
I have a PT-425 w/550 hours that will need some major parts at some point, so it would be good to know what those standard parts are.
At my remote location, I have no access to anyone w/hydraulic system knowledge, so I don't even know what to look for on the 'net as far as hose fittings, etc.
Same for wheel motors, valves, etc., etc.
Thanks!
