Nope. Still at it. For the price it is poorly designed IMO. I can't get the supply line routed where it won't kink. All they had to do would be to supply a 90 degree fitting instead of a 45.

What kind of fittings are supplied with the kit? Could you get another 45 to make the turn or does that complicate the attaching the hose?

Have you put the fitting on the hose yet? If you haven't go to tractor supply and get a 90. Most have a ton of hydraulic fittings in various sizes

I'm going to check out TSC to see if they have any. They didn't have the right type online, but ny the stores carry others. The other option is to find some stainless braided that won't kink.

I had one of the cut to fit fittings blow off on the trail so I got custom made lines by Gates rubber in Norcross.

If you are not in a hurry I'd do what Doug said he did and have some quality hoses made up, and a extra set too.

I didn't like their universal hoses either.

Once I figured out the length and angles I wanted. I ordered up some pre fab hoses from summit. Then kept the universal ones for spares.

Find a hydraulic house shop near by, they will make anything you want and would have all the fittings you could need. You could also call a mobile hose repair company, they will come to you and make whatever you need. Don't get no easier than that

Has anyone ever used B&J hydraulics in Marietta?  Also, what is the normal turn around time for a custom host made locally?

Made them while I waited
