I need to change my hydraulic hoses on my JM/ZL-20 front loader on my Jinma 284. I'm having difficulty finding North America replacements unless I eliminate the swivel connections on the control box. Are they necessary, or can I just go to solid 90' connectors. Has anyone had any experience with this. I don't want to go to swivels again, because from day one (6 years) they have been leaking and now just pouring out hydraulic fluid.
Any suggestions or other ideas would be greatly appreciated.
