Replaceing O Rings on 4 way hydraulic disconnect

[AndyTX]

I have a 06-07 Kubota M9540 HDC12 with hydraulic suttle shift and a LA 1353 front end loader. It devoleped a hydraulic fluid leak between the quick disconnect plates. The model number on quick disconnect is M1869. I called dealer here and according to them Kubota doesn't make or list a replacement O ring for the hydraulic couplers. I can't tell which side is leaking the tractor or front end loader side. Anyone here ever run into this problem????? Maybe shed some light on which way to start......Andy

Normal cause for leakage between the male & female parts of the hyd coupler is the o-ring inside of the female part. I'll bet a good hyd repair place can supply you with the correct o-ring which can be easily replaced with the aid of an "o-ring pick"

I called and dealership told me they had the couplers that would fit the quick disconnect. the cost would be $65.00 per coupler. They brought out wrong ones after telling them they were wrong type.They went into their computer and found what I needed and Kubota doesn't sell parts to it.only sold as a whole unit for $1200.00 . So tomorrow after going to feed store to get replacement milk for two calves who aren't getting enough from their mamas . I will be tearing into it and hopefully can match the hyd coupler up with one......Andytx

Ok I ended up going to Hydraulic shop and they called Fastener in ohio and found the right couplers I ordered four to be sent down to go on the loader side. They should be here this Wednesday. Hopefully this will fix the leak with out having to replace the ones on the tractor....These four halves cost $213.00 hate to have to spend another 213 dollars. I will get the number and have them written down if anyone needs them......Andytx
