    Just for future reference, Cat corporate was no help, but my local rep chased the part down at a hydraulic shop. It is a TP-024, available online or at a quality hydraulic shop.

    I suppose it was not intended to be, but can be disassembled and there are internal seals. It would seem that somebody somewhere has cracked this nut before.

    The #2 (4J0520) is standard O rings on the exterior of the swivel where the hoses connect. #19 is the swivel assembly. There doesn't seem to be any info on the interior parts. I have the local Cat dealer searching for info but they have not come up with an answer yet. I have the full TM...

    Another question for you guys. I removed the right side panel to start working on fuel filters and transmission screen. The hour meter readout is facing straight up. can it be rotated to face to the side of the tractor?
