Leaking hose on the middle arm of the front loader. It’s near the connector but seems to be coming from the longer metal
tube near the connector, and not the connector itself. The elbow and nut area seem dry. It seems to be coming out of the opposite side (from the nut) of the tube. You can see the drip in the second pic.

Any help on how I can fix this is appreciated. Of course, everything I search seems to be for the quick release or connector.

Ok, I think I have this figured out.

I was able to find a video about replacing hoses and I didn’t know how easy this is. I thought there would need to be something about bleeding the system and/or putting pressure back in. I see that’s not the case.

I took off the hose and will bring it in to a dealer. I’m not going to try to figure out that part.

Glad I have some extra Kubota hydraulic oil as it looks like this has leaked enough that I need to add some.

The dealer will probably fix you right up - if it's in stock. I have my hoses made by a local hydraulic shop for about $15 each.

Yes, dealer made one up. Was about twice what yours are, but worked out. :)
