i went with OEM. Ford has updated them. one really nice thing is no more wirebraid to tear your arms up when you get close. They are all coated with a "plastic outer shell".
I'm sure you could have a local Hyd shop build some. even eliminate the quik couplers, but I think the OEM is fine. Its not a matter or bigger/better hoses, its more of replacing a 10+ yr old hose that spends its life holding high temp oil at up to 3000 PSI
both of mine were catastrophic failures, one blown right out the side, the other blew the retainer ring out of the quick coupler.
quick way to dump over a gal of oil ALL OVER the engine bay!

i bought a set of the new type from clay last week, got them in my spare parts kit in the truck. that thing is getting heavy. i asked clay if the blowing of the hoses was a milege thing,or age. he said ford says 100k IIRK, but these trucks are lasting so long that its the age. after what franko72 just went through, i think i'll move them from the spare kit to the engine. i'm always fixing something before it breaks. the brite side is, because of FTE i can.

There aren't any bigger better ones, but Ford did change them like Barney advised. There are some pics of the new ones in the link below.
We have been seeing more and more of these blow, it is definitely time to change them.
