    Damaged Raptor hydraulic hose

    My cousin has damaged a hydraulic hose on his brand new installed Raptors ... here is his question ...:

    Could you post a question for me on BBC? I got my cordless drill chuck against one of the hydraulic hoses for my Raptors and can now see some of the shiny hose, about 1/2”, under the plastic shield. I’ve ran it up and down several times with no leaks. Should I replace the hose?

    Yes replace. The steel braiding is now exposed and it's that braiding that holds the pressure. In time it will corrode and then pop.
