Anybody else hate hose fittings?

So I purchased a aeromotive a-1000 -6 afpr....it has twin feed one return....all the fittings require o-rings on the regulator side as it's not a pipe thread....I plan on using push-lok jegs hose but having a nightmare trying to finding the proper fittings lol!

Aeromotive brand fittings are very expensive...jegs doesn't have oring'd -6 to -6npt....so it looks like I have to mix match brands...so my fittings will be black, blue, red....why can't I find one color one brand that has everything:-(

I thought you didn't need o-rings for AN fittings?
Can't you just use teflon tape to seal the threads?

I used a site called racer parts wholesale for all the pushlock fittings and lines I needed. They've got all the aeroquip stuff including the adapters available online.

Need orings for straight thread.....Teflon tape for pipe thread.

Only need 3 oring fittings that go to the afpr as it's straight thread -6 not npt.
