Where to get this hose?

Britannia · Mar 4, 2016

I have a tapered hose on the raw water intake to my John Deere 6068T. It goes from 1.25" ID to 1.5" ID and is 2.5" long. Does anyone know where I could get a replacement?

It looks like this

Thanks

That looks like something from the plumbing section at the hardware store. They have reducers in various sizes.

"Reducer" - that was the word I should have been searching for.

Rochepoint - that would seem to be a good choice.

Thanks!

Had one on my northern lights generator. I would try a marine engine shop that deals with JD or northern lights. I am sure it is a simple part to find.

Have 2 similar hoses on my 4045 John Deere. Recognizing that they would be tough to find when cruising, so I bought a spare of each from the dealer. Don't remember them being outrageous price wise. Sometimes it's just better to buy the smaller items from the dealer and save the time looking.

I just bought some similar end caps for my JD4045 oil cooler from this company.

Plumbing dept of hardware store. Lowes ,Ace, Home depot etc. They are made in numerous size configs for pipe repairs and emergency joints odd sized connections. I keep a selection on board.

You can buy Silicone reducers here for about $10 in lots of ID combinations. Since they are designed for Automotive Turbo use, temperatures shouldn't be an issue...Their quality is excellent.

Thanks everyone - it looks like there are a couple of places to buy these online. I'll get a spare since I can't just cut one from stock hose.

Much appreciated

Take it off and hand it to the counter guy at a NAPA.

Yup! I have had considerable success matching changes in angle and diameter this way. It largely depends on the experience and attitude of the guy/gal behind the counter.

I did go to my local NAPA yesterday and the guy took me back to look at what they had. Unfortunately nothing was suitable. I'll be ordering online today.

Thanks
