ID hydraulic line; TC40D

[RobertN]

My TC40D has a leak in a rubber "T" on what appears to be hydraulic low pressure return lines. It has a crack in the "T". I looked at Messicks, but could not find a diagram that showed it.

Looking to replace that, but trying to identify it. I only have 100 hours on the hydro fluid, but guessing it will have to be drained to fix this. So planning on filter and fluid too.

This is one of those odd hoses, that will probably be impossible to find in 10 years...

Try a plumbing dist. look at copper tees or even maybe pvc. There is rubber couplers you can get also.

Parts book shows SBA398120870 connector for TC40D with HST?

 

[RobertN]

That is it; awesome! Thank you! Looks like easily available part.

 

[RobertN]

Got the part. Anyone know, if changing that hose will require draining the whole hydro system?

Tore it apart last night. Drained fluid thru the broken rubber hose. Looks like about 6-7 gallons. So will just replace the fluid and filters.
