I am in the process of putting a 3ph on one of my 140’s and I don’t have the hydraulic hoses.
I was wondering if some would get me the proper lengths of them so I could make some up.
Thanks so much,
Jake

Jake, mine originally had longer hoses (probably around 42") but when I replaced them I shortened them up quite a bit and it's much cleaner looking now. I also got rid of the 90* elbows where they plug into the ports.

I will try to get you some photos and measurements of before/after.

Thank you Dustin for your quick response.
I would no have imagined that they were that long.
Does anyone have a picture of your 3pt hitch so I can see how the lines are routed?
Thanks so much,
Jake

Jake,

I didn't have a chance to get the measurements (the 3PH is presently buried in the cramped garage -- using the ballast box at the moment instead). But I found some before and after photos. Getting rid of the 90* elbows was a big improvement, but honestly I probably should have gone another 6-10" shorter on the new hoses:

Jake, in case it was the hoses between the outlets and the 3PH cylinders you were asking about, here are my measurements:

Old hoses: From turn of 90* fitting to opposite connection at cylinders = +/-42"

New hoses: From tip of couplers to opposite end at cylinders = +/- 32"

As mentioned, something more like 26" or so would have been an adequate length for the new hoses after eliminating the 90* elbow. If you purchase 5' of hose you could have 2 x 30" with plenty to spare.
