I did it now! Need some repair pics tc40

Greenthumb consider this: When I installed the front hydraulics on our TC40D I needed to replace two of the hard lines to the new diverter from the joystick valve. I called www.discounthydraulichose.com and had them make up two flexible hoses with the correct ends. It was painless and they shipped them the same day. Click on my signature link and go to adding front hydraulics and you can see what we did. That modification could work for you just as easily.

I also do still have both hard lines if they are the same ones that you need, you can have them for the price of shipping them to you.

thanks Mike,

The line in question is one that comes off the back side of the divertor and runs to the the block maybe 8 in and fits on with a banjo fitting on the frame of the tractor and a flare end on the divetor. I am going to give them this week and then start wondering why they cant pull one off the new tractor line. According to dealers info the line is still used in the new style boomers.

I hope the dealer is able to get you the part real soon. It's no fun making payments and not being able to actually use the tractor.

I like Mike's idea the best, but also, are your lines you removed bent so badly that they cannot be straightened? (By straightened I mean bent back to their original shape...)
Hmm... maybe I answered my own question. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
