First off try checking pressure relief and making sure that the only problem is "old hose"...

I have a local "hydraulics repair" shop that is really good! They only use "Weatherhead" hose and fittings (great looking hoses too!). And, they can make up any length that I need (so there is not sagging extra length). Most all "off-the shelf" hose that I have used is always adequate for most jobs... but I appreciate the extra detail and effort that the specialty shop does for me at almost no extra charge. And by giving them my business (and establishing a customer relation) they have helped me out at critical times... like when I break down and need a hose on short notice, or at closing time on a weekend.

Furthermore, I have found that on really small hyd. lines (steering, brakes) the shop makes better/stronger hoses than any off-the-shelf stuff.
