Doing a little Brush Pile work caught a branch and ripped out my Hydaulics

2000 L3600
The pipe feeds to the Filter housing

Here are the pics, it looks like I just need to get
A new pipe, What is this part actually called ??
The rubber seals
A new locking piece and bolts

Trying to figure out I lost one of those rings/bolts at the filter housing and need to back out a broken bolt ??? Kinda had to tell but I don't see/feel anything that would indicate it

Any help here would be appreciated

The front by the Filter










The back as it comes out of the tank, I am assuming I need to release the pipe by taking that bolt off





Thanks in advance... The only good here was that I was due for a Hydraulic Filter and Fluid change this summer anyway, so there is that

Looks like might be inlet line..?? Here is a link to Messicks I believe it is part # 70 in the parts diagram.
Hope this helps!!

If the above model is incorrect you will have to put in the right one.. Wasn't sure if it is HST model or not.

And you have a bolt broken off near the filter I think!

I believe both ends of the tube are held in place by a tab with a bolt through the tab, just as the rear end is done.

I think the bolt remnants can be seen in post #1 pictures 2,3 and 4. Good luck getting it out and I hope it goes smoothly! Some others will be along to suggest there favorite method but I would start with trying to rotate it counter clockwise with a sharp object (like an ice pick).

The good part is that the bolt that is broken off is in the filter housing, so you could pull that and get it on a bench to get the broken bolt out.

Glen, you'll need to give me the tractor's serial number, as there was 4 pipe possibilities for it.

If the line is not kinked, bring it over and I'll put a new tab on it and you should be good to go.

Follow Up:

Boating Season is over up here so it was time to get back to work around our place

Here is the follow up

I ordered everything from Messick's the parts were correct

I used a few tricks to do this easier than I would have in the past.
A younger Glen would have tried to muscle it all back together :)
A older more injury prone Glen used a Ratchet Strap and a Bottle Jack to gently slowly ease that new pipe and seals back into place
I found the what looked like a Broken Bolt at the front (Filter) end of the pipe was simply dirt, there was never a bolt in there. Cleaned it out and the new bolt went in easily
I was watching a vid about replacing a Brake/Starter switch on a Polaris Ranger and something the guy said made good sense along with what I read in the Kubota Manual
Let the Oil settle BEFORE moving or working the Hydraulics...

So after doing a full drain and filter change since I was close to the 400 Hour mark anyway..
I filled the Tank so that I could BARELY see the line at the top of the sight glass.
Then I walked away and left it over night, sure enough, when I went out this morning to start the tractor the Oil had settled out and the Sight glass was dead center.
I started the engine, and watched the level drop just out of sight in the glass as everything came back alive..

I let the Tractor warm up, went inside got another cuppa Coffee came back out in 15 minutes and saw no visible leaks, so I moved the tractor back into the barn on it's level spot.. I added about 3 qts more, until the sight glass was perfect again..

Feeling pretty confident that it is good to go, have some Firewood work to get done this weekend so we shall see once it goes back to work

Thanks to everyone for all the help and suggestions
