Backhoe Anyone replaced hoses on a BL 4690 Backhoe?

I was able to get this from tractorsmart:

BL 4690 parts

But it only gives the fittings and hose part numbers without a complete description. Obviously Kubota only wants you to buy from them, but even with the part numbers the dealers aren't able to help me with identifying the specific hoses I need to replace. Can anyone decipher these descriptions or have from personal experience the diameter, length and fittings required for the individual hoses?

Thanks

By the way, tractorsmart parts guys are the best! Knowledgeable, helpful with prices and delivery times that can't be beat. I found that even if I called around and got a cheaper price they would match it and no matter what the weight/size only $5.00 shipping, usually leaving same day.

Just take the hose that is leaking in to your dealer or parts store and they will copy them for you.

I have a different hoe but took the hose off and went to a hydraulics shop. They made a new hose in a few minutes. You may get asked what pressure rating you need/want if its not stated on the hose.

Unfortunately I bought this piece of equipment used and most of the really bad hoses are not the right length and maybe not even the right diameter or pressure rating. I was hoping to get the Kubota spec's so I could replace them with as close to OEM as possible.

Thanks for the suggestions though.
