just found a wet spot on LH tilt cylinder frame, need to monitor. looks like small seepage vs big leak but want to get info ahead of time as this is a 2010 and original.
where the end does not have a wrench flat does pipe wrench work ok?
agco lists each part but does not seem to have a rebuild "kit" unless I overlooked, anyone else come across this?

DISREGARD hose seep around top ferrule

Replace hoses in pairs, saves an extra trip in a couple months.

Replace hoses in pairs, saves an extra trip in a couple months.
rest of hoses in surprisingly good shape.
the top hose (agco # SL103366) used in only these 2 spots on the DL100, so ordering 2 and will keep 1 spare.
the lower hose (agco # 71515711) used in 2 spots on loader so grabbing 2 of them to keep on hand.
lift cylinders all use same hose in all 4 spots, 71515711

hope its the hose, either that on the welded boss on cylinder leaking but seepage is small enough I cannot pinpoint. but there is moisture on that one hose that transferred to the other hose so...worst case is I end up with a used spare hose and have to get cylinder work done.

edit: corrected hose placement and added lift hose numbers.

guess in few months I'll spend 180 on new barrel ( prior owner had damaged this one, fitting was bent when I bought unit) and a few bucks on seals and rebuild old one to have spare since all 4 my cylinders are same thing.
sadly I just cannot take the risk right now, got large gravel pad to be spread soon for someone. plus multitude of other projects. so any work in week or so will be 0 profit LOL
