763 Bobcat Quick Coupler

[bobcatskid763]

I have a 763G Series (SN 512250XXX) bobcat and I'm looking to replace both male and female couplers - see attached photo. I pulled the following info from the couplers but they aren't helping me locate the proper replacement parts:

Male Coupler: FASTER 3FFI 12...M PA
Female Coupler: FASTER 2FFI 12...F 8N (near the base it's not clear but looks like 34SAE)

According to Bobcat parts catalog, the original parts for my SN are listed below but they are no longer available:
Male: 6667808
Female: 6672960

One thing I know is that these are Flat Face 1/2" body. What's the best way for me to figure out what replacement parts I need?

if you have your old ones off, maybe try taking to a good shop that makes hoses up and see if they can get you replacements or where to get them
odds are they have contacts with things and would be local for you, that is if you have any shops near you

Answer: Both connections are female 3/4" SAE ORB. It was a pain to get off because you need a thin 1 1/4" wrench to hold the bulkhead fitting nut. Had to grind down a wrench to make it fit on the back side.

These couplings are as common as; here in Oz my local hydraulic shop had heaps sitting on the shelf in couple of different brands/quality. The previous owner had a dog's breakfast in couplings and I wanted to return back to some normality as my machine is a high-flow 763F currently operating a chain digger and auger.

for high flow you will probably need 3/4" body. As mrbb previously suggested, it is best to get the coupling off, put cardboard/bucket under so that it doesn't make a mess and bring the coupling to a hydraulic shop for them to figure out exactly what you need.
