Inspector,
I wish they did come with the loader. Kind of crazy that they don't. For the overall price of a loader and for the protection they provide, you would think it would be a no-brainer. My rear remotes came with plugs and caps.
They are made to have a keeper ring slide over the hydraulic line before the quick-connect fittings are threaded on the ends, that way they are always on the tractor. I would have to take my fittings off, slip the plugs on the lines, and reinstall the fittings. There is not enough stretch in the hard rubber material to slide them over the fittings. Not worth the effort - I use the ring end of the plugs to hang them on a nail in the garage when not in use.
