Hi fellas,
I shortened a push loc hose already installed in my car so I man handled the fitting as far as I could but, needed more, of course. So, I designed and built a assembly press for push loc assembly. It worked pretty good.

That is cool stuff. Everyone makes fun of me for holding on to threaded rod scraps. I also have everything you used there to make that just laying around.
 
Hot Rodding at it's best ! Seems like a lost art anymore
 
Nice!! I have used a similar tool that uses a caulking gun body as a ratcheting press
