Long pilot oring adapter fitting for Hydromax

The Hydromax takes a "long pilot oring" connection for the hydraulic input. I could only find short pilot fittings for hydraulics. Any long pilot fittings found were for refrigeration service. I didn't want to try and buy a OEM hose and adapt it to the hydraulic pump I already had. I set out to make an adapter fitting to get to a common oring boss connection and go from there.
Started with 1.25" 12l14 hex stock and made the oring boss
Measuring threads using three wire method, first time for me with this.
Adapter assembled on Hydromax. Long pilot oring to female oring boss to a 90 degree JIC flare.
