Are you sure it wasn't just time for the ring to go?

If you  have to remove the hoses, then yes. And I had
one of those hoses break. Luckily I was in a parking
lot at the time and not on the freeway. And they are
odd hoses. I had to put use caps until I could get the
hoses. So its a good idea to just replace them.
