Hello everyone,
I purchased a l3901 a month back, had to wait a week for the backhoe to come in. They came and picked up the tractor, installed the backhoe and brought it back same day...been using the backhoe since then...today I took off the backhoe (bh77, easy process by the way ;) ) and installed my 3 point...the hydraulic line they installed for the backhoe, when I plug in the two lines to fire up my 2 point, the starboard side rubs the line and when it drops all the way, it pushed the line hard. Does anyone have pictures of where their fitting for the backhoe is placed? (I have a call into the dealer, just looking for ideas while I wait for a call back )

I don’t how to post pictures but I put a 45 degree on the ridged mounted side and this allowed me to turn it up enough to clear the hoses so they don’t rub

See the below thread from my experience. No, I have not gotten to replumb the connections but the longer hose and rerouting has so far eliminated the problem.
