Niftylift SD50 hose replacement

[MA Arborist]

Anyone here know a ball park for replacing all the hoses in the boom? (parts and labor).

Just trying to get an idea for down the road since my machine is almost 5 years old. I figure if one hose blows from normal wear and tear that I might as well change out all of the hoses in the boom. It looks like it would be real pain in the ass to do it.

@Lumberjack may well have that info.

If a hose blew, I’d evaluate the reason it blew and compare it to the other hoses.

They are a wear item, but blanket replacing every hose isn’t how I’d spend my time or money.

The hoses don’t have to come from Nifty, labor depends on the market (I would do it myself before paying someone else to do basic labor).
