I'm a bit peeved with my transaction here.I went in to get some hydraulic lines and explained my application. I wanted to steal a tractor's loader hydraulics and run them the back to connect to a 3 pt snowblower's chute. I needed four 3/8 inch 10.5 foot lines with an elbow and ag style quick connects. I also had a three foot power steering line I wanted duplicated.I came the next day to get the five lines and an 850 dollar bill. I could have gotten the same things at fleet farm for 250 and ordered the power steering line from the dealer for 60 dollars. Their response? We only use the best stuff and you'll never have a problem with it. That's great, but that really doesn't make sense for what I'm doing. I've worked 10 years for an industrial equipment manufacturer so I'm no stranger to fluid power or what things cost. Blindly overspeccing things is seldom helpful for an application and usually only benefits the guy selling the parts. For 850 bucks I could have bought two remote valves, a joystick, and lines to set up dedicated rear hydraulics. But don't get me wrong, I have a new found sense of pride knowing that my new hydraulic lines rival the value of the tractor...I had them keep their quick connects (4 male/female sets and 4 male) which dropped 300 off the bill. I bought the same fittings online at summit hydraulics for 100 dollars shipped. I figure the whole deal was 3x more expensive then it should have been. The steering line was ballpark what I could order it for, but I'm 90 percent certain they swapped a long elbow for a normal length one so the new line doesn't fit the steering valve. Looks like I'll be ordering that one anyways.The guys are the store are fine. Friendly people.

Jay and Dan are great! When I think of how customer service should be done, I always think of this place.Some of the mechanical stuff I have to do is kinda jerry rigged together until I can get a better permanent fix in place. These guys are willing to take the time and help you figure it out.Also they know what they're talking about. I'm routinely surprised that they look at a part in my hand and know what it is and the size before I even give it to them to look at.I'd recommend Northern Engine & Supply to anyone that needs any hydraulic parts or engine or general mechanical parts. They are fantastic!

Jay has been wonderfully helpful every time I called looking for a part. Even when he didn't have it he referred me to a place that did. Ran in at last minute today just as they were shutting off the lights. Not only did they happily welcome me in but two parts guys and an office person stayed to make sure I could get what I needed. I ll give these folks every sale I can!

Jay and the team are the best if you are looking for hose made up quick or an odd fitting. If they don't have something they can almost always get it.
