    Does anyone know whats the best way of fixing this. Its a steel hydraulic pipe on the front loader. Can you fix these pipes or do they need to be replaced. It looks like its gone at the back of the join.

    Take it off and get it welded, shouldn't be a problem unless it's very badly corroded

    Worst case replace the whole section with a hydraulic hose

    You can get them welded or braised. .

    We always seem to replace them though with rubber hydraulic hoses a few years later on

    Try welding first, you'll have to give the area a good reddening with a blowtorch to burn/boil off all the oil first.
    If you braze it and it dosent work, it's not easy to weld afterwards.
