I just did some quick checking on line an found a listing on the Napa web site. I called the store and they showed TWO in stock in the ENTIRE counrty! One in Milwaukee and the other in Salt Lake. I am getting the one from Milwaukee so there should be one left in Salt lake if any one needs one.

that hose may differ depending on the rack you have. the trw rack uses a different fitting than the fomoco rack.     one uses an oring style fitting the other is inverted flare at the rack end.  you can tell the racks apart as one has 3 bolts on the input shaft

make sure your not waiting on the wrong hose.
