I have the same machine and have done a lot of hoses over the years. The sun and physical damage to the outer rubber sheath are the biggest cause of failure. When the steel core is exposed to moisture, they rust and eventually fail. Tinkerers advice about quality is right on. I use a local hydraulic shop to make up replacements, only quality and add the spiral hose armour. They also have special extra flexible hose for places like the swing tower hoses. All are not cheap and I only have replaced what is necessary during cylinder maintenance. My loader hoses are original and will be done this year when I have it apart for cylinder packings. Case hoses are expensive but for a few like the hose for the shuttle filter in front of the rad, you get the correct fitting. The parts book is great for lengths but does not address the fitting sizes. Your best best is to take the old hose in to the shop. Any decent hydraulic shop will have most of the O rings, all the cylinder packings, hose and any adapters required to fit up to the old ones. A good relationship with one of these businesses can also help in the cost, since they have better pricing for good customers. Its only my opinion, but as already stated, change what you need as you go along and buy quality. It may be the last time that hose is changed in the life of the machine.

Yes I have googled spiral hose wrap. LOL. The only thing my Lowe&#;s and Home Depot have is cheap corrugated wiring protection. The first link above, I already checked there, they sell 66 foot rolls, I need like 10 but willing to buy 2x that. Amazon has yellow that I can get in a few days, but negative on yellow. I will try NAPA, thanks all
