When I came here this tractor had the lines running from the loader attachment for a rear line hook up. They were flopping around and hard to connect at times. Had a little time to make something work for what we had already.
Used some 1/4 " flat stock and drilled out a 1" hole then filed it out the shape of the coupler.
Had to make the holes a little farther apart. Hard to get your hands in there for hook up otherwise.
Here is one installed
The hook up from front block.
Making up some washers to take up rest of space in behind bar. Also filed out a regular washer to just fit over line threads.
Not too bad. Mark the points of nut then use a triangle file to start.
Then file the flat areas in between
Mounted it to the roll bar
with a clamp from hardware store.
Just a demonstration of fixing something with what you have. If there were no connection points on this tractor it may be cheaper to buy a kit for the rear couplers from JD.
