Does anyone know what kind of fitting is on the end of the power steering outlet hose on a Jinma 354? This is the hose I'm talking about:
Outlet pipe II
One end has a 90-degree male threaded pipe that goes into a banjo fitting on the priority valve. It's the other end I'm interested in. It's a female threaded fitting, I don't know how to ID it.
Alternately, does anyone know the diameter of that hose?
The background: I want to add remote hydraulics to my tractor. I need a hydraulic return line for that. My hydraulic tank only has one opening, which is the return pipe from the power steering. That's a hard pipe and I don't feel like cutting it. At the tank there's no possibility of teeing in because the connection is right behind the 3-point hitch control. The other end is at the priority valve and there is no room to tee because the FEL bracket is right up against it. The return from the power steering is a hose running from the steering box to the priority valve. It seems my best bets are either to put a tee between the steering box and the hose, or to cut the hose and put in a barbed tee.
To put a tee on the end of the hose I need to know what kind of fitting it is. To cut the hose i need to know the hose diameter.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.
