CA Anyone use Hose & Fittings etc, Parker Store in Fremont / Sac for Oil Cooler Lines?

Has anyone gone to Parker Store - Hose & Fittings in Fremont or Sac, for rebuilding their hydraulic lines? I'm trying to rebuild my oil cooler lines / hose .

http://www.hoseandfittingsetc.com/Se...es/fremont-ca/

Any experiences with then and other hydraulic shops in the East Bay or Bay area? Looking for a place to get a same day rebuild.

Any shops in LA / OC ? Does Lukys Hardware do rebuilding?

TIA

Thanks Kuya. Will check them out when I'm in LA, if I get a chance.

Thanks Rotospeed. Looks like I'll be going to Parker Store here. Did you have your oil cooler lines rebuilt by them?

yeah, they didint have one of the fittings in stock and wanted to make me a baraided something for more money, so i had them reuse the fittings and they used some hydralic hose good to 400psi, they did a good job and i think it cost like $35 using my old fittings.

I use them all the time for hydraulic work (FREMONT), I actually spoke to the guy at the san leandro location and he said they could make them they would just have to order the hose, they use the same stuff mazda uses. Heads up, they also make awesome custom brake hoses in various colors, dot approved too.

Great deal. I followed instructions from a post below. Sliced 4 ferrules off. Will get approx 14 and 14.5" of hose, and have them crimp it on my fittings.

Corksport tests to 400psi. I'll prob look at 1000psi, which was used in another post below. Just want it to be flexible. Not sure if I'll get braided.

Nice to hear positive comments about the shop. Will look for suitable lines for oil metering pump - omp mop, 2 ear clamps, and crush washers. Already did brake hoses. Hope that takes care of my hydraulic leaks. Thanks for the info, lowlifestyle.
