It's too late for me to switch on this /6 conversion but for future note. These hoses are a PITA to make - surely there is something easier and more flexible. I notice Aeroquip has Socketless non-SS hose but that is a kinda scary product as it does not use hose clamps.

I used non-covered hydraulic hose. Good for far more PSI than my oil system will ever deliver. Goes together a lot like the SS stuff above, but easier because you don't have to deal with the SS covering.

If you're really worried, you can take the hose in and have a hydraulic shop swage ends on for you. That's an even tougher connection than the DIY stuff.
