international 454 tractor hopefully fixed

[@maxtimberlake29]

My daddy bought a 454 early 2000's. Still running great. It has a 666 loader on it. It has served us well. I'm preparing to replace/repair the flex hydraulic lines and the bucket cylinder. Any advice?

go back with good lines i would repl;ace all steel lines if any on it and the flex hose get the wrap for them to protect from uv and keep the machine under a shed when not in use thank you like and subscribe

Definetly mark them all or change one at a time to not get them mixed up and get the covering flr them not sure what it is called looks like a net type stuff on my kubota It is for uv protection I hate to leave any equipment sitting outside hoses take a beating from the sun and weather I bough the kubota new always shed kept when not I'm use it is a 08 modle and hoses still decent on it I would also do a fluid Change when hoses are replaced and before install of hoses always blow air if you can through them when they are cut sometimes there is some trash in the hose this will help prevent issues with control valves sticking
