[QUOTE="MX727, post: 120760, member: 7333"] 1) Hydraulic shops in the local area. Search for Parker 2) Heavy equipment shops. CAT dealers have some of the better setups and highest quality. Can be the quickest way to get a hose in a pinch, although they can be more expensive. 3) Some NAPA stores make hoses 4) Tractor and equipment dealers. Some don't have hoses or fittings above 3000psi. 5) As mentioned, you can use the generic Tractor Supply hoses and adapters. I tend to only use these on attachments, and only when in a time crunch. I haven't had any problems with them, just a pain sometimes to get the right adapters. Once you've been doing this for a while you will become more familiar with the fittings and know what to ask for. In general, you are going to want at least 3000psi hoses, but you may need higher depending on what pressure your machine puts out.
