I have. Many industrial shops in my area and a lot of hydraulic hose suppliers. None of them would do the job because it was an automotive application and blamed MTO (DOT) liability

Much of my time during the job is spent hauling things up and down the stairs to the basement or in and out of the storage shed, or running back downstairs when I realize I need something else,or taking a break from standing out in the sun,or using flashlights or work lamps when it gets dark.

Thankful for old threads like this. The kids 2002 S60 has a slow leak on the power steering pressure line, after reading this I’m pretty sure I’ll be sending it to my independent mechanic to tackle the job. Looks like lots of frustration!
