The is at lest 3 well developed threads on various methods if replacing only the Hose. I did mine in 2007 as per the thread below with 5/8"ID Hose that was actually too sloppy and drover quite a few years like that and finally found a source of the correct 15mmID Hose and replaced it with that and better clamps. If you read the threads you will not the controversy and other methods people have used.
Not in my thread but one of our members planned to do AC work on more then one of his car and bought crimping set for the AC Hoses and used the crimping tool and AC Hose also to replace his Oil Cooler hoses.
