TC55DA EHSS Owners Read.. Save a 3 hour job

[Coolhand56]

Hi All, I have a 2004 TC55DA EHSS with 845 hours. Bushogging a field yesterday, hit the brakes and a major hyd leak. Long story short, the spring that is for the Left Brake has an interference with the Hyd line [5/16] that is for EHSS. Wore a hole in the line. A 5/16 compression fitting and cutting out the piece where the hole was fixed it. I cut the brake spring off, and replaced with a longer spring to a hole further back and to the right of the line. No interference now.... Lost 2 gallons of hyd fluid in getting from the field to the barn, and then it took a bit to figure out where the leak was as there are lots of hyd lines, the manifold diverter etc in that area.

Good Luck
