08 Elite Suite hydraulic return line rupture

[acmay46]

When lowering the front landing gear, the driver side stabilizer jack lowered, hissed, and leaked fluid. The line ruptured at top of hose where it enters the underbelly. It was resting on the edge of the steel housing where the jack is attached. Chaffing due to rough roads and IMHO a poor design. As I was unable to get to the break or find any help I just caught the fluid and bought two gallons of type F tranny fluid to replenish reservoir. So back home now and attempting a self repair. After talking with DRV they did not have a schematic but guessed the return line(black one)probably goes directly to right side jack, and by unscrewing the attahment points I might be able to remove the entire hose assembly and by attaching a pull line be able to get the new hose through. Anyone out there had a similar issue that could help?
