The replacement hoses offered by the dealers have eliminated the steel tube and added a 90° el on the hose and a 45°el fitting.DavidBarkey wrote: ↑Tue Jul 26, 2022 6:49 am Those steel tube ended hoses can be reproduced by cutting the tube section off and flaring it with a JIC nut and just have hose made to suit . Some of those hoses are JIC female tube on one end and NPT male on the other . At a hose maker in Barrie I saw extra long tube fittings for hoses that look like they could be bent into any shape needed. I didn't have time to ask the guy about them .
@FUTZ Know more on this subject than anyone I know . Maybe Ian can enlighten us on this . Would be good to know for restoration work , or custom stuff.
