1981 242 AC Hose rebuilding? online service? local shops? 200

So I been pretty active in putz mode on my fleet lately. I'm trying to get my 242 ready for the blistering texas summer and I upgraded my old non functioning york compressor to the new style out of a 1991, got it all hooked up(made my original hoses fit) gave her a charge, cooled right down(new o-rings installed as well, new drier) over night all my refrigerant had seeped out(which I halfway expected since one of my hoses is pretty chewed up from the elements and 34 years of existing.

Question:
Anybody know a company/shop that can re-crimp my fittings to new hose?? I pulled the proper hoses from the 1991 from picknpull as well but of course they are too short for the old style set up.

Thanks in advance for any leads! I want to have all 4 hoses rebuilt.
