So they question becomes, if the hose barbs are made (whatever means) to point inward (away from the frame) would it work on the P/S? I have no problem with fabrication skills.
Short answer is yes. If you can rework the steel lines to point back toward the frame, then it will work. I am thinking that if you just add a 180 bent tube to the end of each existing tube, that will work.
