Ok... after 500 trouble free hours on my CK27, I have a minor hydraulic leak at the loader coupler. First, I could not disconnect the hoses for the life of me. I never removed the loader since the tractor was new, and minor corrosion plus wear on the inside of the female end (from vibration I guess) made a job which should have taken a minute, an hour worth of struggle. In case you are wondering, there was no pressure in the system... I moved the joystick all over the place. Second, I wanted to buy the female end of the hose at local stores, but no place has the exact fit to match the male end sticking out of the bracket on the tractor. The o-ring inside is definitely damaged, and so is the inside of the coupler.... I know the hose end is 3/8, but what else should I know to order one of these on-line? the nearest dealer is 2 hours away... any other suggestions? I appreciate it.
