If you do not plan to reuse the hose then there's not much point in having the hose assembly. The fittings are not reusable. Also a converted R134 system should have Ester oil in it not PAG. You can run Ester oil through non-barrier style hoses. My 72 AC system is original except for new refrigerant, proper R134 fittings and new Receiver/Drier.
