Incidentally, when new the trucks included a large flexible spring inside the lower hose. I still have mine. I assume that was just included to prevent kinking at the bends.

Thank you Firstowner69 for your information. I have that one in my inventory and because of the setback it rubs on the lip. Back in the day I had a friend that owned a NAPA store I could go behind the counter and match things that I needed. Even if I still could do that chances of finding the right hose would be slim to none. Parts store carry limited stock and I think what I am looking for might fit a 53 Buick!
