Just a follow up to this post. Today we finally were able to install the new hoses. Here's what I ended up doing. I removed the hoses at the engine
and pulled them out of all of the loops all the way back to where they enter the floor through the two holes in the plywood. We cut the hoses about 2
feet from where they enter the floor, and did the V trick by cutting the V in the ends (I used a threaded bolt and duct tape to hook the two ends
together securely). We hooked both ends of the new hose to the old and had to pull them both through together as the old were zip tied together
behind the cabinets and we could not get back there to snip it. It ended up working perfect, feeding them up from the bottom and the other person
pulling them from the bathroom. All in all a success, thank you again for the help. It was not as bad of a job as I thought. Thankfully the hoses
behind the cabinets where simply laying on the wheel well and not tied anywhere on the inside walls.
