Hey Charlie, welcome back! Yes, you will be able to use the Bulldog Winch RV Winterization Kit # BDW85QB with your existing air hose, but you may need to change the quick-connect fitting.
The Bulldog kit comes with 1/4" M-style (Industrial/Milton) air fittings, which are commonly referred to as the long-neck style.

If your compressor hose uses the shorter-neck Automotive/T-style coupling, the supplied fittings may not connect properly.
This is an easy fix though. You have two options:
1. Replace the male air plug on the Bulldog regulator with one that matches your existing hose coupling.
2. Use an appropriate quick-connect adapter between your hose and the regulator.

The fittings are standard replaceable pneumatic connections, so you shouldn't need to replace your entire compressor hose.
