The flaring tool sure is handy but you need at least a good inch of straight at the end, plus another 1/2" for the nut. Again, I had to rework the pressure line and had to make the entire end about an inch long, so had to get creative with the vise and striking the tool with a hammer.



Anyways, that's enough about the steering hoses. Here's the current parts pile, with more stuff from brothers 65% off sale not yet in the pile.
Dang your going thru what i went thru! but i didn't get any brothers 65% off sale anything!

Cant remember now if your doing stock springs and new shocks or if you have a lift? I was gonna ask what part numbers your shocks are if its a 4"
