John Deere 430 Loader Hydraulic Hoses

[sloch24]

I have a hose on my loader that just started leaking, so I figure it's time to change out all the hoses.

Are the cheaper (Ebay, China) hoses working for people? If not, what's a good resource for procuring pre-assembled hoses?

Can't answer on the China/Ebay hoses. I go to NAPA and have them make 'em. That way I know they'll work, and for about the same price.

Surplus Center uses USA hose (NPR Jones), but the connectors are Asian. I've had good luck with their premade hoses as long as you can live with the lengths* and the choice of NPT or JIC connections.

* Lengths typically to the nearest 6".
