What size hydraulic lines?

[Firefighter Kubota]

Installing my rear remotes on my Kubota 7510 rated for 7gpm total (4.4 gpm remote/3pt, 2.6 gpm power steering)

the remotes are feed with 3/8 like the rest of the tractor.

What size lines would you recommend for my snow plow blade / front grapple -They will use the same lines. I'm sure 1/4 will be enough, but wanted to confirm. I read a post where a guy used 3/8 and it was too fast/too much flow for his grapple...Similiar tractor

BTW approx 16' run front to rear



what size lines for a top link piston? 1/4 as well?

Thanks

Use all 1/4" lines for the work ports, and 3/8" for the feed and return ports(like you already said)
