Ya need a hose rated @ 4000 psi and at 400 deg. I looked into making my own but unless ya got your own stuff to build hoses....its cheaper to call Dale @Tymar and have him send ya one.
The cross over evens the pressures in the two heads causing a smoother operation. As Jake said no gains performance wise. I have had them on both my 94 and 96 for some time and can't and wont go back! Well worth the 30-40 bucks

I just made one witgh the hyd. hoses at work, like mentioned if you got the the crimp fittings and a good quality hose you can make one if you have the crimp machine.

lastly, anyone that decides to make a hose with "reusable" fittings shoulod be carefull, of seen these leak on many applications from hyd systems to power steering systems down to water lines
