Hello and thanks in advance for any information.
I recently bought a Case 450 dozer. The engine sounds fine and it moves about 4 feet forward and backward, but stop because the tracks are buckled up in places because the chain links are very rusty ( some buckled-up pad grousers catch on the left and right operators floor foot plates) I've continued to drowned the pads and chain links in used automatic transmission fluid hopping it will penetrate them and loosen them up. Then I'll move the machine gently back and forth, hopefully to avoid ned tracks.
The front hydraulic hose on the hydraulic cylinder assembly has been torn away from the assembly (probably the hose was caught by a pad) The nut is still on the hose. It looks like the flared tubing was sheared right at the assembly. The flared piece may still be in the bottom of the valve assembly.
What is the best way to repair this hydraulic line?
THANK YOU
