Hi,

Well personally I removed my old lines first and brought the ends in as a
sample.  The ends are metric, and my new hose consists of the following:

Hose : 

I used SR17-06  (3000 psi)

Fittings : 

A50A43-05-06 (qty 2, w/ one at each end of hose)
110000-06 (qty 2, w/ one at each end of hose)

The technician put these into a machine that sealed both parts together and
onto the hose.

Also it was a bit difficult to remove the old lines so I used some WD40 w/ a
good wrench and it loosened it right up.

If you have any more questions please do not hesitate.

Best regards,
Shawn

Shawn,
Can you tell me what the size of the ends are that
were used or a company & part number from them.  I
have a local shop that can do the same.  Just need to
know which end to use.

Thanks.
