G'day guys;

Just posting some pics for Hydrolastic hose replacement.
Got them done through a mate thats got a hydraulic shop.
All up cost was $180 for all four.
He said they were an easy enough job, but time consuming.

A hydro van sounds great. Like to hear how that one goes.
Once the hoses are replaced you will never have to worry about them again. If a bag does let go; it's just a matter of tapping a new union in another and attach the hose.

Ive mucked around with a few displacers myself,one thing to watch out for is if you cut the dick of to tap it be carefull cause they can spin and then its buggered. The way i done mine is buy 1/8 bspf hex nut die and cut a thread straight on the dick,then used reusable hydrolic fittings which screw straight on, The beauty about reusables you don;t need a crimp,if you burst a hose near the end you can just cut it and put it back on,or replace the hose without a crimper!!
