PRICE ALERT.

I installed new oil lines on my 115/300d for about $10 and they are as good as original. If your fittings are good DON'T buy new ones. They can be very pricey and often difficult to find.

To make the hoses first mark the way the fittings face on each hose. Twisting hydraulic hose is difficult.

First grind off the crimp collar that holds the hose to the fitting. I removed mine by cutting it off with a hand grinder. You can do the same with a bench grinder. Once the collars are off and the fittings free take the 4 fittings and the 2 hoses to a hydraulic repair shop or a parts store that makes hydraulic lines. They can usually cut new lines and recrimp the fittings while you wait. Be sure that the shop gets the fittings facing the right direction.
