HWH hydraulic lines

[birdshill123]

It has been a while since I have done any hydraulic repairs. I have
removed the genset from our 88 FC and I discovered a leak at the HWH
jack. Finally narrowed it down to the hydraulic hose end. BB did not
support the line and the weight was too much for the end fitting. I
thought there would be a union or manifold nearby ( this is a rear
jack). No such luck. It looks like the line is one piece right to the
pump area. The line itself is in good shape. Rather than remove the
whole thing can't I just cut the line, get a new hose made up with the
fittings to connect to the jack and get a removable coupler to mate the
new line to the old? Seems to me these are available. Any ideas from a
hydraulic guru?
