Mike I tried to send this to you personally throught the e-mail address on your original post and it keep bouncing back. Hope you get this. Mike, thanks for your comments and interest in my Vanagon Power steering line solution. I can probably get the fittings from the maker of the hose but there could be a problem having them put on. As was explained to me, there are many types of fittings and the machine used to crimp the fittings to the hose is different for each type. The different fittings are also not able to fit on all the different hose types on the market. The fitting has to match the hose, the hose has to be rated to 1400 lb. or more and the crimper has to be for the type of fitting used. So I cannot offer you a guarantee that you will be able to find someone with the proper machine and the proper hose to make up the hose there. If your still interested in getting the fittings used by the company that made up my hose let me know and I will contact them to see if they will sell the fittings and at what cost. Cheers Frank
