Blew a hose yesterday on one of the remotes. It has a banjo connection. Will most good hydraulic places have these in stock.
Is there a something else I can use in place of the banjo?

Can you post a picture? Often they are oddball's...some good shop's can braze you up a new one though.

If it is on your pictured 4000, you may be able to substitute a 90 degree 3/4" ORB male swivel fitting if the banjo fitting is unavailable.

Well I have a tractor "Like" the 4000 in my picture. :D Some day I'd like to rebuild mine and have it look as nice as that one.
I will check and see what they have at the CNH dealer I've been going to. If not I will have to figure out how to get orb to work.

Nice thing about the banjo is that the connections are close together and I need 90 degree. Dont think I get two 90's threaded on with them being so close together.

I was thinking of a new hose with the 90 degree ORB fitting crimped on the hose.

To see if the ORB fitting is an option, you will need to accurately measure the bolt from the banjo to see if the thread will be the same. Here are the typical threads in this chart: Thread Size Chart
Can you post some pictures of what broke and where it goes?

Measure the threads of the banjo bolt and compare it to the threads in the link Kenny posted. Banjo threads are almost always either metric or BSPP. You can screw in an adaptor and have a hose made to that adaptor. See the Weatherhead "MB" series of fittings. I believe you want the MB5515xxxx part #'s. Find a Weatherhead distributor, that's your best bet. Or, if you can wait to mail order, call or pm Ken over at DHH. He's on here as "hydraulic hose guy."
I have never seen a banjo fitting that an ORB fitting would screw into.

Last I checked, CNH still had banjo to female pipe adapters.. then you use a copper washer with them, and supply your own male pipe hoses.

My 660 with laoder is plumbed that way on an ford valve..
