Hi guys, I have a 67 580ck.all the hoses need to be redone.some of them are 1” some 5/8. I blew out the steel pipe that runs along the boom, and it was replaced with 1” hydraulic hose.Can someone confirm proper hose size.also the boom wants to swing to 1 side or another while driving, what causes that.thanks so much

"swing side to side"
Like 180° ?
Any looseness in the swing cylinder pins would be easy to see by pushing on the boom when it is off the ground.
The trunnion pin looseness would cause the entire cylinder to move while pushing on the boom when it is off the ground.
