Thanks for the suggestions, will see what is available and go from there. Kubota dealer gave me a sleeve, free no charge, when I got the new hose so I'll use it until I can get a better option.

Had a hose fail, rubbed against the FEL arm. Trying to figure out how to protect the new one. Had a plastic sleeve around it but I don't think it was heavy enough. Any suggestions? I have some plastic tubing that is heavier and I think I can put it on before I connect it eliminating the need to...

Reverse osmosis. Nothing in the manual so I just put about 1/4" into drain line and it worked, no leakage so I call it good. This one is a non-airgap model.

Way off topic but does anyone know how far the 1/4" tubing should go into the main drain line?

Thanks for all the suggestions. Since I already have live traps the corn bait might do the trick, my barn cats are curious but like said they will learn after a few times, no harm no foul. They are definitely coons, I can read tracks pretty well, plus I don't think any other mentioned species...

Any ideas on how to get rid of coons? They are in my barn at night, I see their tracks. I really can't set traps, I have live traps, but also have barn cats that are half wild and I am sure they would get in the traps before the coons. They must come in late because I have not been able to catch...

Had 2 more hoses fail this weekend, that makes 5. B2650 is 7 years old and parked in barn when not in use so there should be no sun/weather damage. Hoses are failing not the fittings. Anybody else having issues with 2016 B series hoses? Have to believe there was a bad batch of hose material...

Try not having a truck where I live, you would stay home a lot during the winter. If I didn't have a truck how would I pull cars and suvs out of the snow drifts?? In fact I have two trucks, F150 and F250, plus everything I own has 4WD. Different parts of the country and different lifestyles...

Thanks, that explains a lot. I knew a bit and was curious if the old line would be adequate but it probably deteriorates with time, especially with propane. May just get our propane guys to do the complete hook up and conversion just to be safe.

Getting a new GE gas kitchen range. Called Home Depot local store and also their hotline to make sure they would convert it to Propane and was assured by each that they would take care of it. Got my paperwork, my responsibility list for delivery, and it clearly states in a couple of places that...

It's about a foot long, on the FEL. I have found our dealer is quite fair price wise on most of the stuff I have bought from them.

From my Kubota dealer, H24504-NAPX 1/4 Hydr hose plus 2 1/4x3/8 #6 JICF straight swivel fittings. With tax it came to $16.81, I was a bit off.

The hoses are deteriorating, leaking from hose and not fitting. No rubs/abrasions, no bending or flexing to any degree. These are original hoses, have not had any of the replacements leak so it's not the locations. Always stored inside so no sun damage, just wondered if anyone else had similar...

How often do you have to replace faulty hydraulic lines? It seems like I replace one a year, not the same one, very light use and no abuse or accident. Only about $15 so no big expense, just a pain since the dealer is 50 miles away. Tractor is about 7 years old and stored in barn, don't know how...

I'll try that, it is in a tight place. One of those fun places if I have to replace the hose.

Noticed a leak in lift arm, small wet spot and a few drops on the fitting/hose. Wiped it off, ran the tractor, and now no leak. I figured running it would amplify the leak so that I could tell which hose it was actually coming from, there are two side by side. Has anybody had a phantom leak...

"He would like me to stay on part time making my own hours, as many or few as I want." Same thing happened to me first time so I spent two more years before it started to be the same ole same ole. Should have cut the cord sooner but 20/20 hindsight so you are smart to.

Wife is going through the same scenario. I retired the first time early but it took me three more times to finally totally retire, subsequent times were fun jobs and not like my primary one that I first retired from. Once you are done you will know it, at least I did and that's what I tell the...

2016 B2650HSDC almost 400 hours, had to replace two hydraulic hoses but no other major issues. Two things I would have done differently would be not buy the radio, after market would have been better, and I would have thought about type of tires a bit more, currently have the R4's.

I use a similar system. The center is from a broken bit horse bridle and the spring tensioners are trampoline springs, bought those online, 15 pack a lot cheaper than single springs from hardware stores.
