Where do you all get your parts? I'm looking for a hose for this backhoe, part number

E7NNP894AA - Elbow Assembly - NEW HOLLAND AGRICULTURE.​

I can find it on the New Holland site, but they want $325 for a hydraulic hose that looks like a reinforced radiator hose. CNHI shows one at $130, but I can't find the correct page to order it from.

I am in California, in a remote area so trying to get it shipped, but if was able to find it close by I would drive to pick it up...
Just trying to find one at a reasonable price.
 
Welcome to the forum.
Have you tried a local hydraulic repair shop? Is it flow for hyd fluid or air?
 
I don't have a "local" hydraulic shop; however, I will be making calls tomorrow (Monday).
This hose runs from the hydraulic tank to the pump, on the suction side. It is approximately 2" ID. Looking at it, it looks like an upper radiator hose for your average vehicle.
Trying to look for a large diameter hose, designed to transfer hydraulic fluid. I understand a normal radiator hose would just breakdown if used with hydraulic fluid, they are not designed to carry oil.
 
I recall a few others looking for that hose. Seems it's impossible to find. Oil resistant hose in various sizes is available. I would be inclined to visit a local muffler shop. Hopefully find some tight 90 degree bends close in diameter to the hose, and some scraps to match the larger diameter. Make up a custom replacement from tubing and connect it with proper size hose couplers on each end. If that's not available maybe try some straight tubing cut at 45's and make it into your own 90's. Yes, it would take little "engineering" and possibly test your welding/fabricating skills, but it's an option that doesn't involve searching for something that can't be found.
