[@mikeyoung3189]

Had Some good info bro. Thanks for taking time to share my friend!

Would a crows foot not work ?

[@ctbradey]

It's possible but it's a crap shoot on the angle. There's no clearance in any direction. Mine ended up being about 1/2" too long before the cut and hit the shroud, but it still worked.

hey man i had to try and replace a line today on one at work man there is a hydualic line that runs almost parallel to the rr tire and there is a cover both there and in the middle of the machine between the tires there is a line that sits low to low to where u cant get any regular wrench or a adjustable man what should i do

[@ctbradey]

That's basically how this one was. I'm not terribly well versed in the machines. I just had a man tell me I couldnt do it, so I made those wrenches from tractor supply. Everyone said you either had to pull the motor or the pump to get to the line I did in the video.

[@ctbradey]

Sounds like the same one

Thank you for your video. I have the same unit. I took the cover off on the outside of the unit covering the 2 compression attachments. I need to replace the hose second in. I can reach the other end. Do you know what size wrench I need? I do not have one large enough. Thanks :)

@@campmom998 I don't offhand. Hopefully someone who knows every part of the machine will see this and be able to tell you.

Can you tell me how much torque you had to put on the wrench to break it loose?

[@ctbradey]

A lot. I had the custom wrench tied to another good wrench using that little nut rig I welded together and still had to manhandle it. Total of 3 identical wrenches to do the job

[@jami1359]

@@ctbradey Did you break it loose going toward the engine or the hydraulic motor?

[@ctbradey]

@@jami1359 it's been a while, but If I remember correctly you're lifting upwards with your face to the rear of the machine. Squatting down inside under the cab. If it's the same hose. The main line that runs off the back of the pump towards the passenger side up to the filter.
