Yep, I get their catalogs. They have good pricing on hydraulic fittings. They're about 1/3 to 1/4 the price of local suppliers. Some of their hoses can be cheap too. I priced the lock valves at several places and they were $175 to $200. Can't remember if I checked Surplus Center on those. I usually price stuff via the computer.
Their shipments take about a week to get to me. When it comes to hoses and fittings, I usually can't wait.
When I used to go to auctions, I would always buy the box of made up hoses that seem to be at every equipment sale. When I need a hose but my hoses are too long, I have the local equipment shop cut it and put on a new end. I have saved thousands of dollars over the years. They tell me I am the only guy who brings in his own hoses. Most of those hoses will be in my estate sale after I pass on.
The lock valves came off an old 15 ton Taylor forklift that I no longer use. They were on the power side-shifting forks. I knew they were there but wasn't sure they were lock valves because it seemed like an odd location. I went to the Gressen Hydraulic site and was able to identify them through their engineering drawings. I had all the fittings (used) but one. A neighbor had that one.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
