Replacement Fluid Lines Done To Order
NEW Hydraulics can provide the hydraulic, fuel line, power steering and A/C tubes and hoses needed to rebuild, restore or customize equipment. Whether you need one tube or hose or multiples, no job is too big or too small, according to Paul Konopa, the owner.
    “Most of our orders are 1 or 2 at a time, but one customer came in with a 50-year-old boat lift crane,” recalls Konopa. “He said it was a diamond in the rough and asked us to replace all the hydraulic hoses and tubes. Tubes alone ran more than 350 ft.”
    In most cases, the request is to replace a single tube that has gone bad. “As long as the hydraulic block or banjo fitting is okay, we can make the rest from scratch,” says Jeff Jordan, lead mechanic. “We have the tools to bend tubes or machine parts if needed. Hoses and tubes are our niche. If only the hose is bad, we can replace it, rather than the customer having to replace the entire assembly.”
    Jordan says people will sometimes call and describe where on the machine a particular tube or hose they need goes. Sometimes a picture is all that is needed. Best of all is when they can send in the entire part, he adds.
    In addition to tubes and hoses, NEW Hydraulics sells and services snowplows. They fabricate mounts, offer repair kits for plow A frames, rebuild upper lift frames, and more.
    “We can make anything people need to get their equipment up and running, even if it is a completely different modification from the original part,” says Konopa. “Often we can rebuild for a fraction of the cost of new.”
