Well the deed is done. That was a bear to get those fittings back together all the way to their shoulders. In fact I came up about 3/16" shy on the banjo end. The Gates 6G2 hose has a much heavier wall than the MB oem hose...

But I filled it with fluid, and a test drive saw no leaks, and it appears SLS is back in business. A nice flow of return fluid to the reservoir, etc. Thanks all...until next time.
