Need to copy HP hydraulic hose

[ccohen5]

Many thanks for all the help and suggestions.  For various reasons I ran out
of the time it would take to send the broken hose cross country and get it
back and installed.  So I went with a local guy that does earth moving
equipment.  The first hose was installed with the double wall and the first
time I did a full lock test after the installation, it blew!  It was sliced
about the size of a dime just before the HP output point.  So we went back
to the guy and told him he had to guarantee 4000 psi.  Oh he says, just like
the Cat hoses!  Anyway one of these is installed and it works but now its no
longer quiet.  It makes a slight humming noise at slow speed when activated.

So I am going to try and resource an original hose from Germany although
this will do.  It has to move 9 inch wheels with 245 tread width but the car
weighs 2700 lbs so it is not the same mum or hose for the Urq.  Different
part number.
