As most of you know, I mounted all three of my trim pumps on the rear seat back. This, of course, requires new, much longer hoses than original. It's not so much the length and cost of the hoses, but the SST ends on the hoses. These ends, similar to brake line ends, seem to be pretty expensive!
My Aeroquip dealer told me the particular ends in SST will average $50.00 to $65.00 EACH!
So, 12 ends w/an average cost of, say, $60.00 comes to $720.00, plus about $250.00 in hose comes to $960.00!!!!!
Anyone have any suggestions to lower the cost, other than reverting to carbon steel ends?
