I have a kubota m8200 tractor with air conditioning. I was working it an got into a steel fence post. The post came up and cut both of the ac lines running beside the engine. Kubota wants $1100.00 for replacements. Any ideas on splicing these back together? Ive been to napa, autozone, and oreillys but they couldnt do anything. The size of kubotas tubing doesnnt allow for use of automotive fittings.

Not something I run into much, but yes the dealer is correct in the pricing. Surely someone has a way to make the hoses up. I just don't know who. I have a crimper and a bunch of fittings I picked up at an auction but nothing works with Kubota-this stuff is all automotive and has served me well EXCEPT for Kubota's stuff. If you figure it out let me know.
