Cool so it looks like there is no know issues with metal fatigue or anything with these lines, i have access to a hydraulic hose crimp tool so if i can find the hose and ferrules i should be good..... if not i think i will go have to look into the braided option, i actually have a similar set up on my E350 but from the trans cooler back to the transmission, in this case it was cracks from fatigue, it was so easy to just pop them on as opposed to trying to thread through new metal lines.
