Discount Hydraulic Hose , they are online just google them > I took off all my hoses , measured them ,gave them the lengths , told them what fittings , mine were the same both ends . They made them up ,and shipped them to me . They are fast ,and the prices cannot be beat . Also they are very quality hoses .

Your hoses are 1/4" , they have a great selection to chose from . I told them what I was doing ,and they recommended the hose I needed .

If the hose is already leaking, there should be very little pressure if any at all. The 3 hoses I have replaced were all orange and the rig was fully set up, slides and leveling system all extended. I put a bottle jack on the frame next to the leg before removing the hose just to be safe, no issues. I would think the system has 2-way check valves as a safety a feature.

Unless the systems have changed in the last couple of years ... if you remove the extend hose from any hydraulic landing gear cylinder while the camper is sitting on them, you better get back because the fiver is going down a bit and hydraulic fluid is going everywhere. Either keep the fiver hooked to the truck or put a jack(s) under the frame.

It seems that automotive Brake Lines would be better... IDK...
