I just bought this fine machine, and within days it sprung a leak in an oil line. In the process of replacing leaking section of the metal oil line with a hose and clamps, I must have jiggled the connection because when I started it back up, it was leaking from the connection with the reverser. I sprung a leak at the start of the line when it plugs into the reverser.
I called up my official John Deere parts supplier and we tracked down the right part, to find it's been out of production since 1971. I'm guessing someone has had this same problem a whole bunch of times in the last 40 years and they aren't just using old parts from dead tractors to make this repair. Any thoughts of what they used for a work around?
I'm attaching a picture from their parts website. It's the line at the top that has a box in-line (not with a 90 degree continuation). #3
