        Chuck, I have never been able to source a hydraulic fitting to suit ANY hose on my dozer. When I have to repair something I take the whole lot to Pirtek and they braze or weld on standard fittings to get me going again. Welcome to the world of Chinese standard threads.  Good luck!

          Thanks, that’s the answer I didn’t want to hear but knew it would would probably be the one I got, guess I will have to plan on a diy for everything related to the dozer.

            There are a lot more fittings available than most local hydraulic shops carry or have ever encountered.

            Here are a couple of sources I use to figure out fittings for my Jinma 284 tractor.

            These both have good graphics and measurements for you to compare to.

            Check with your local Caterpillar dealer. If they don’t have the caps and plugs you need, they may be able to get them. Cat uses a lot of ORFS hoses.
