Any ideas for hose guides to keep combo bucket hoses off skid steer tires?

I am looking to see if there is a known way to keep the hoses off of the tires. I currently just use a bungee cord type of set up to keep them somewhat away, but there has to be a better way. Any thoughts?

What skid steer are you using? Some have hose holders welded to the left arm to hold the hoses off the tires?

Other option is the stainless steel braided hose covers the loggers use. We have it on a demo grapple that works well.

I couldn't remember if the Bobcats still had the threaded hole or not. Our Cat's have roll stock welded on the left arm for guides.

FFC sells a spring type rod that will wield to the attachment. Works like a champ keeping control of hyd. lines on any attachment.
