I broke my connection that goes from the hydraulic controller to the rear. Any ideas or suggestions on getting this thing reconnected?

Thank you all very much.

I got the whole T connection removed and I'll get it replaced. I should be back running soon!

I’d have to see both sides of the fitting to see what’s going on there. What’s the story with the U joint seperation in the background?

U joint was due to a major rookie error. I've learned a lot. I had to replace the starter and after removing the motor I didn't get the drive shaft properly reconnected. I started it up and it was obviously thrashing around. I turned it off right away, but that's what broke my t connection in the hydraulic line. I'm lucky I didn't break more than that.

I would take the fitting to your local Parker hydraulic store and see if they can make one up for you. If not, there are usually lots of JD Garden tractor parts for sale on ebay.
