Quick Connects

[Highridge]

Hi
I was wondering if anyone has found a source other than power-trac for the hydraulic quick connects? I broke one today and dont feel like buying $50 worth from power-trac.

thanks

I matched up some of mine at the local hydraulic shop, but mine is an old PT.

Take one off and match it up. or change out the male and female coupler to whatever is available. Northern Tools has some, Baileys.com

I went through this recently as well, and it was cheaper and quicker for me to just replace the connectors with Parkers than try and track down the crazy 3rd world connectors PT uses...

Also, I took the PT connectors in, and they looked close to other connectors, but never quite fit.

I got some for an old wood splitter I converted to the PT, from Tractor Supply. I guess most of their stuff is from 3rd world though.

I do aplogize to all the Italians in the group saying that I accused of being 3rd world ;-).

here is a post on the subject that is handy I think.

Thanks Mossroad!

I'm pretty sure the quick-attach couplers are 1/2" or possibly 3/4?

Hey guys,
I just found out that any 1/4" quick connect from a fisher plow will work. I bought a couple from the dealer and put them on and they are basically the same thing.

When using Quick Disconnects, you should use one size larger QD's than the hose size. When using the same size QD's, you will restrict the fluid to some degree.
