oil feed and return
Sunday, January 14, 2007 10:16 PM
where did everyone get their oil feed and return lines, i dont want some POS lines, but i dont want to have to piece together a kit, unless someone posts the part # along with their post. I have done extensive searching on this and have found nothing, so please help me out. any help will be greatly appreciated.

if you need them right away, go to a local farm shop and get steel braided line at the lengths you need. They will make them for you, and you can watch... pretty neat. as for oil return, something like a 3/4" multi purpose works if they don't have steel braided... look at spending 50 USD at the store and going home knowing you have lengths you measured, and the right fittings

Also I recommend one of the Function 7 oil inlet flanges for the feed to restrict the oil and pressure.

any type of farm machinery store, look for something like "farm supply" or anything with the word "bearing" in the title

Look for a place called Tompkins industries they do custom braided lines while you wait and it is cheap. Maybe this post I made awhile back might help you.
