A steady issue is an understatement. I'm replacing them with hoses as fast as they break. I just keep wondering how the heck many steel lines could they fit into one little 440.
There are a couple of lines in there that split when I wasn't working very close to town, so I brazed them up. I guess they'll have to break twice to get replaced.  ;)

The guys i knew that had 440's replaced the steel with reg hyd hose, other wise its a steady issue.

Replaced all my hoses in mine a few years back when I stripped it down to a Bare frame and painted it.. Think I shed a few hundred pounds with all the sticks, needles and packed grease i pulled out..lol
