Replacing high pressure hydraulic oil suction hose
The subject hose, about 5 feet in length, has cracks on the exterior and a minor bulge where it mounts to the lower fitting, Cummins 350 ISC, 2003 Dutch Star, year printed on the hose is 2002 obviously original. The hose is an Parker 811-16, 250psi, and is available locally. Question is, just how difficult to replace? Seems I would have to empty the hydraulic reservoir? The hose is not connected directly to the hose but to hydraulic valve body that's mounted underneath the reservoir. Access to the clamps , one easy, the upper not so easy. Any comments welcome.
