Can anyone give me a hint on replacing the 4 short hydraulic hoses (dipper and bucket) that run between the control valve outputs/returns and the boom? The ends are hard to reach on on the tractor end and completely inaccessible on the other (boom) end. Is there a special crowfoot or similar wrench that is used for this? Looks to need a 1 1/8" for the hose side and a bit larger for the swivel side of each connection that I can see. I'm guessing these are 3/4" hoses.
Should I start by cutting all 4 hoses so I can remove the small manifold on the boom?
The dipper hose is the one that burst; should I just bypass the two steel tubes and go straight from the valve to the manifold output with rubber?

You might search on the Case brand specific threads to see if there is someone there that has done the same repair.
