How Much Disassembly is required to replace a B3200 Hydraulic Line

[JRinWV]

My B3200 has a leak in the hydraulic line from the cooler back to the hydraulic filter (PIPE, RETURN Part # 6C360-39320.)
I am at a loss as to how to wiggle that line out without taking off the front end loader and parts of the frame. Am I missing a trick? Is this in the WSM somewhere?

Looks like low pressure slip fit with o-ring seals at both ends. Is the pipe itself leaking? I don't see any need to remove the pipe to service those seals.

Yes you'll more than likely have to remove the loader and some of the subframe to gain access to the line.

I was hoping for a failed clip or o-rings, but it's a leak in the pipe.

Thanks. Had hoped I was overlooking something, but now I'll dig out the jack stands and heavy sockets.

Bummer. Got a nice place to work on it?

It's out of the weather on a concrete pad, and I have enough room to lay out what I take off in a semblance of order. Beats trying to work on it stuck in the woods... been there, done that.

I was born and raised in WV but had to look up Red Oak on the map. That's an interesting neighborhood - no shortage of woods

Back before I64 and I79 existed I decided to take Rt 50 from Winchester to Bridgeport on my way to Charleston. Kids loved it - me and my wife not so much.
