I'm all finished with my backhoe thumb. After a few Trips to TSC and 200 + worth of hose and fittings it's up and working. When I was hooking the hoses up, the one line that threw me off was the main pressure line from the pump to the Backhoe valve body. I assumed it was a reg 3/8 like most else. When I got it off the Pump side had a 1/2 Male NPT but it almost looked like a 1/4 hole and on the other side it was a 1/2 female JIC. Did they reduce this that much for a reason? It's a 9GPM pump. The return is a 3/8 line.
