I believe you are talking about the hydraulic lines between the hydraulic pump on the front of the tractor to the remote valve which is operated with the lever on the light bar. If this is the case my cousin had the same problem and had them silver soldered which held for a while. I'm guessing vibration is the cause for the failure. He is a top notch machinist and to really fix his tractor he taped threads in both the pump and the remote valve and installed pipe thread fittings and had hoses made up between the two fittings. He's never had a problem since. I guess I'm lucky but my Super C has the fast hitch and same components as yours and haven't had to face the problem yet. Hopes this helps, Hal.
 
I would silver solder them too. Used this a lot at work. It's not very cheap even 25 years ago. Hal
 
Like the guys said you could silver soldier it and hope it works out or you could pull the blocks off the pump and tractor and have your choice of thread put onto the end of it and use flexable hoses. We did this to a 450 farmall years ago and it's still going strong. Not original but functional.
 
That would probably be my first choice as the hydraulic hose would withstand the vibration. I would tap it with pipe threads and use JIC fittings and swivel nuts on the hose. Hal
