When I needed a high pressure hose one time I found a local shop that could do it. They made a hose for exact fit and it never leaked. If you are looking for OEM replacements to keep the car original then disregard......

I've got one off a 1974, I'm not sure if they were the same as 1977 or not. I can post a picture if it would help. John

Don't know if 74 will fit or not. If you could send a pic i might be able to tell if it does As to getting shop to make I had that looked at and there is not enough room on my lines after cutting old ends to replace hose. So I guess have to find replacement hoses and hope they are good.

Many hydraulics shops and parts houses specializing in truck parts also stock the proper hose and fittings to replace either R-12 or R-134a hoses. Look for someone who is a distributor for Grayless or Weatherhead fittings and hoses.
