Got the new hose installed. Had a hydraulic shop builid it using the two ends off the factory one. Had him put a JIC swivel connection in the middle so I wouldn't have any twist problems. Only problem I had was because he used steel braided hose which was quite stiff so it was tough getting the ends to align right to get the threads started. But it seems to work perfectly and now I have a hose rated for 3,000PSI and 350F degrees. I made a really short video I'll post on YouTube eventually.

Update: so I can now notice a chattering in the system when turning to the left at idle. It goes away with some throttle. Not sure if it is because of the steel braided line has no expansion capabilities, I eliminated the accumulator thingy or both. So there's that.
