Oil drain hose plug stripped

[alexhammer]

I have a Dixon ztr and my problem is the hose to do an oil change is stripped really bad ( see picture) tried using vice grips, pipe wrench, and even a socket. It's just slips and even strips more. So was wondering how can I undo it? Or even can I just cut the drain hose then put a barbed end (with a hose clamp) and a male end thread then just put a nut cap?

Cut it off and replace the end... Or get a new short length of hydraulic hose with the ends already on...
not really a big deal, especially if you run a good synthetic oil and only change engine oil Once a year... :smile:KennyV
