Well after getting everything around for my external filter conversion, I somehow lost the original filter pipe. I have torn everywhere apart!! Have looked fornearly 5 hours total, I cant look anymore, theres no where to look and I just get really teed off. I do not recall taking it anywhere but the dealership, and even then I decided not to take it in with me0, so it doubfult I left it some place.
Now here the kicker, I cant just use a piece of bllack iron pipe bnecause the original have machine threads (non tapered), and used an oring to seal. I would just use a tapered pipe threaded pipe because I have used them like that before ( in a nontapered hole) and they seal up just fine. HOWEVER the hole is no deep enough before it turns a 90 and the tapered pipe just bottoms out before it is tight, so this wont work.
Maybe someone out there has a toasted hydraulic filter that fits a 300u and they bought a new one and could donate the old piece of pipe from the old filter? I'd be more then happy to pay the cost of shipping. Also, another bad thing is I dont know how long the original was. I could guesstimate, but once i put that cover on, its not gonna be fun taking it back off and making a new gasket. I thought maybe I did ake it in somewhere, so I called the dealer where I got a few gaskets that day and inquired about the filter, I called TSC and Ace hardware. All three say they havent seen anything like that. I thought maybe mennards, but first the place is huge, i doubt they have any collective lost and abandoned area, and I'm 99.999% sure I didnt take it in there, as I only took the new filter assembly and the suction hose to get some fittings.
The pipe also seems to be an odball size. The inside of the hole in the res cover is 1" at the inside of the threads, so the pipe has to be like "1/4 of an inch form theouside measurement, making the pipe about 7/8" ID orsome crap. =\
Any ideas?

Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
