Hello all... I have a 2016 C238 (EH 2-speed) with fluid leaking from a hydraulic line going to the RH track drive motor. I am looking for some educated input on replacing these lines. I have the track pulled back and the dirt cleared away from the area and the cab raised. I see that it uses "quick connections" at the 3 smaller lines. I have ordered all 3 of these lines and the connectors for both sides. My questions are for the best way to work these lines through and what all might need to be removed that is in the way. The larger main fluid lines are a little rusty too but are these even replaceable without severe levels of disassembly? Not much room to swing wrenches under the cab!! My instincts are to replace everything but don't want to gut the under cab area if those bigger lines can be protected from further rusting and live another day. Ridiculously poor design but I just need to deal with this as intelligently as possible. thanks in advance for any experience in this operation.
