Milano HP Hose for ABS Pump

As far as I know, new OEM high pressure hoses for the ABS pump are NLA. Does anyone know a source for fittings so I can have a new one custom made with high pressure SS braided hydraulic hose? Unfortunately, the two local industrial hose shops near me do not have the fittings. And if there is enough interest, I'd be willing to have a few made up for those that need to replace their weeping hose (just like I do).

custom made high pressure hoses

Ken, there is a company called Hose-man (hose-man.com) they will make you a new high pressure hose using your old as a sample, they have several locations in the LA area, good luck.

Unless the fittings are leaking, they should be able to re-use them with the hose of your choice.

Hi Joe,
That was my understanding as well, but one shop said the hose end of the fittings were too short to reuse. It's my understanding they attach an extension to the fitting, so they can be re-crimped onto new hose. I certainly wasn't going to push the issue with them since I assumed they're the experts and have done this before.

Check this post. I bought all the parts from Pegasus, although there was some confusion over the banjo bolt because my Reatta pump had a smaller thread in it.
