Hydraulic hose splices

[Scott Forman]

One of my leveler hoses has a split very close to the fitting at the
jack. I bought a new hose from HWH, and set out to replace it. The
problem, though, is that the other end of the hose at the actuator is
unaccessible for removal. The other three leveler hoses are easily
accessed, but the one I need is blocked out by a frame member...typical
Murphy's law. Attempting to disassemble this entire area so I can get
to the fitting is more project than I want to undertake, so I am
wondering if there is some way I could leave the existing hose attached
at that end, cut it at a more accessible spot, and then somehow splice
in the new hose to the remaining old piece with some sort of fitting.
Anyone think this is at all possible?

Thanks
