|
|
I am having a damn hard time trying to find these supply lines
all they are is a 1/8 npt high pressure line. And you think any farm
store around here will sell them? NO. all they have is hydrolic hoses 1/4
after buying a set for 55 bux i found out they wont come close to fitting.
So i been looking around online, the best thing i can find is a paint ball gun hose. They are high pressure, and npt, and swivel, i just need male ends.

Do you guys know anything else i can use?

I got mine made at the guy who relined my Brake shoes he does hydraulic lines for trucks. He does brakes and clutches and of course all the big truck work requires custom hose work. Took the old ones in and he made me a new set with proper ends and length.
Do you have any hydraulic shops in your area they are the guys to go see they are used to making hoses.

Ya i went to a place called Prairie truck in Minot ND, they didnt have anything smaller than 1/4inch????? wtf.
I think i better stay away from the paintball gun lines since they are not made of neoprene? so the oil will probably eat those hoses then i will have big trouble.
I will check some auto brake shops and see what they can do. Maybe a truck stop shop?
thanks for the help. It shouldn't be this damn hard. hha its just a freakn hose.

Good news. What are the NAPA part numbers on those so we can tell others. Can you post a pic of the installed lines?
Thanks
