I just took the old high pressure hose ends down to the local truck repair shop...and he did some measuring...and odered the ends...I think they were 16mm...but not sure. When the ends came in, I took them home and checked to see that they fit and did. Then he just used the special crimping tool they have and installed them on the hydraulic hose. The other one is the low pressure side so you just use good hose clamps to attach the hose to the exisitng fittings you cut off the old metal tubes. Works slick and cost me about $125 US for both hoses and fittings. Frank C. has them for about 175-200US. His web site does tell the lengths you need.
