Not hard but just be careful about fraying the ss lines cause they will be hard to get into the AN fittings. Other than that, easy.

make sure you have something that will cut the hose right so as not to make the hose splinter and then you will have a hell of a time getting it in the hose end fitting.
get some tape and tightly tape the hose where you are cutting, then use a sharp metal cutting blade. ONce cut it is just a matter of pressing the hose into the sleeve (all the way in, until i stops) and then put the hose end adapter in the sleeve and screw it on.. BEING VERY CAREFUL not to push the hose back out when you are doing this. to make sure get a pen and mark the hose where it stops so taht you know if it is moving back as you are screwing in the fitting. do this slowly and you will have no problems. If the hose moves too far back you will have to start all over again and it will not be fun.

Good luck!
