On this disk Im fixing up the ring up front that the hydraulic hoses run through is mangled up and I might be able to straighten it out if I have to but I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a new one and weld on there. Its just some spring steel rod welded on there with a loop on the top.

Michael,

I made one in about a half hour.

Get a 3" piece of pipe and clamp it down somehow.

Heat a 3/8" rod about 12-14", when hot, wrap it around the pipe.

Then clamp the rod in a vise and pull it apart, this makes the loop "open".

Cut to length and weld. Mine works fine. Just copied one on my JD disk.

I used plain steel out of my junk pile. Actually think it was a guide rod for a baby crib in its previous life.

Good luck,
Rick

you do not want to weld on spring steel. it will break real ese if you do. any piece of plain steel will do. i would use something that is at least 5/8 inch in dia, just to give yourself plenty to weld it onto the tongue with. i wouldn't hesitate about adding a gusset where the rod and tongue meet for extra strength. you don't want the nose tight between the tractor and disk to start with. i do tie my hoses to the ring to keep them from sliding to far in either direction, allowing a little bit of slack on both sides of the ring. you could just use a piece of pipe for a ring and just slide your hoses through the pipe. just debur the inside of the pipe real good to keep from cutting a nose. a piece of old nose pipe helt in place with cable ties makes a good sleeve to protect hoses with in any application. i find that a tie at each end of the sleeve, on the hydraulic noses, as well as around the sleeve will hold it in place. use big cable ties and don't trim the tails off on the ties that are on the hose itself.

It doesn't even have to be spring steel- I've taken 1/4" or slightly larger HR round and wrapped it around a pipe that's about 2 1/2-3" dia. and then welded that on as a hose holder. Otherwise if Ya gotta have a made up by someone else for big bucks one, try Shoup.

But doesnt it have to be spring steel to flex when you turn or if the hose hangs up? Shoup has a hose holder with a coil on the bottom that slides on your drawbar. I could probably buy that and cut the coil off the bottom and weld it on.

Not really- a peice of 1/4 or 3/8 round stock has quite a bit of flex to it. It may get bent but you can easily bend it back to be straight again. The holder should be located so the 3 pt arms won't hit, which most do end up hitting, and the hoses should be long enough that they don't pull on the holder.

Another thing with spring steel, you can't weld on it without expecting it to break again, atleast not on a farm. That't why you can't weld on truck springs, they'll just break again.

That said, the holder you found from shoup is more than likely regular rod bent up to form a spring and could be welded.
