Hydraulics may not be "rocket science" to you and me, but it seems to be for most people. They really struggle with it.

Most of the actual fittings on the loader are NPT, with an adapter.... maybe. Some used all NPT fittings. A lot of the pumps use o-ring, so you may end up with several different types of hose fittings, or using an adapter. No, it's not rocket science, but if you don't know what types of fittings are available, where to get them, how to adapt, have pressure knowledge and all that..... yeah. Hydraulic shop will just "assume" that your working on a Cat loader and sell you the best thing they have. Seen this on here many, many, many times.
