Also what is the Diameter of the hose so i know whit one i should be getting... or i might just take the length of hose off and take it in to compare...

Thanks in advance guys! I am in a big panic to get too many things fixed on this things so i can follow through with Christmas plans

James,

The part number is ANR3133, and I just replaced mine. It does have really quite substantial walls, so I would advise you to get a direct replacement, rather than just a generic hose from Supercheap.

James,
I concur with Sheerluck, don't forget your essentially dealing with an hydraulic oil circuit, and not all hose is designed to be compatible with oil. I found a mob in Sydney called Karcraft who sold me a replacement for $23

Thanks guys!

I opted to just cut the end off the hose and re fit it with a new clamp... seems to have worked! And cost me nothing

Now on to fix the other problems hopefully in time!

James.
