I have a problem

[jamcarr2]

Well I have several but this one is stopping me putting the engine back in .The auto gear box (type 65 ) has always had a very slight leak and now it is out I have found where it is coming from ,there are two pipes that exit the the box then run over the box and connect to the two pipes that go to the oil cooler .
One of the pipes is leaking it is the one that is missing in the picture ,the problem is that the pipe is connected to the box via a double connector 1/2 unc x1/2unf the unf end connects to a union on the end of the pipe and at some tine in its life the thread has been butchered .It would appear that they are not available from any of the usual suppliers so has anyone got one of these pipes to sell (and the connector if poss ) or can anyone tell me where I can get a 1/2unf union from .
In anticipation John WP_20150228_001.jpg

You have a Pirtek depot in Ellesmere Port and another in Liverpool. Might be worth dropping by or giving them a call. They keep most hydraulic fittings.

As Dave says, give Pirtek a call. We use them at work. They will make the complete pipe up for you if you ask.

Dave /Bruce Thanks for the information tried pirtex today but unfortunately no joy ,but whilst I was in Ellesmere port I went for a walk around the other industrial estates and found a place called M&R hydraulics and they couldn't have been more helpful all done and cost £10 ,he asked for £5 but I gave him £10 seemed a small price to pay ,so thanks to the both of you ,if you hadn't given me Pirtek name I would never have found the other place ,
