Connector Leak

[KennyG]

I've got a leak on a loader quick connect on my John Deere 2320 that has become large enough to warrant repairing. I think I've narrowed it down to a single connector. It appears to be seeping out between the tractor side connector body and the locking collar. Without knowing too much about this, I'm assuming the easiest approach would be to just replace the tractor side (female) connector. Is there anything else I should replace? O-rings on hydraulic line connector? Loader side (male) connector?

Some times you can just replace the O ring in the female side of the connector at times I'e had to replace it with a new one when badly warn but many times I just have done the 0 ring.

I've never attempted to repair but as Billrog said it can be done. If it's not leaking anywhere else you shouldn't have to replace anything else. Check the prices and the type of connector close as there are many different types and the prices are all over the place. I run the skidsteer doing tree removable and clearing and have beat up a few of the connectors but never had one to just start leaking. Good luck.

Like Steve said there are many different types I find I never have a problem with the ones that fit in solid the sloppy ones will be hard on 0 rings.
