I guess Harry still doesn't understand?

Scott & Harry, the hydraulic tube that needs brazed is the return tube between the pump and the control valve. I found some used ones previously, but was fearful what they may have been like (rust) on the inside, so I opted to have it repaired instead. If it doesn't hold up, I'll opt for a replacement, but I'm pretty sure a new one won't be available.

David S., nice find!

Charlie,

However, I don't think Hydro is the only one here that's a bit full of it now and then... including myself.

Thanks guys!
I'm wondering if the weight box on the rear is also a Danco piece.
The paint bears the exact same patina as the loader that appears to have the original decals on it. The piece of concrete is formed to fit inside of it and is removable, also, the box does not appear to be homemade.
I am really impressed by the massive mounting frame for this unit. and the unique way the pump is mounted and the provision for adjusting the belt.
Upon close examination, it is really obvious this piece of equipment was designed to fit this Cub.
Do any of you folks have any more info on these that you could share? Like model #, filter number etc??
