Dieselcowboy 210 #1 Posted January 17, 2014 The C series and many other wheel horse autos with Hyd lift have factory very small fittings on the hose ends. I have a couple old c's the have these on them, They have started leaking around the swivel joints which are not repairable. Napa and most other hyd hose makers have things that will work somewhat but the fittings are huge. Has anyone found a suitable replacement suppler to make or purchase these small fitting hoses from? Or does toro still support the old hyd lines? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,336 #2 Posted January 17, 2014 There is a farm tractor dealer near me that have the o-ring thread to 1/4" Flare adapters both male threads . Then they made me a hose with 1/4"female swivel flare ends. I had a GT-14 that leaked at the swivel at the trans. That's how I got it fixed. If I remember right it was 1 90 degree fitting and 1 straight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 18,556 #4 Posted January 17, 2014 Many of the WH fittings are ORB#5 (O Ring Boss). The are on the small size and some hydraulic hose shops (including the one I use) do not stock them. I buy the fittings from Discount Hydraulic hose and my local guy crimps them for me. The web site is full of information on the different styles of fittings ORB, Flare, NPT etc http://www.discounthydraulichose.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
