Re: Power steering hoses Posted by Peter [Email] (#2804) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Peter) on Thu, 16 Dec 2004 18:03:52 In Reply to: Re: Power steering hoses, Nickshu, Thu, 16 Dec 2004 15:01:40 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have a small leak near the firewall, some surface cracks, and a larger leak at the front between the pump and the radiator. Not sure where else yet. There is a second source for the first high pressure hose, the one attached to the pump and including the cooling line, but not for the rest. The high pressure hoses have threaded fittings, the return (suction) hoses have clamps.
I would guess any good 2000-2500psi power steering hose with steel reinforced layers would do just fine. Do you happen to have the ID/OD hose dimensions and thread size for the fittings on the high pressure side where you can't use a hose clamp?
At the reservoir is the low pressure side, you could try new clamps. I think mine are leaking at the joints to the metal pipes. On the high pressure feed line, once you take off the treaded fitting, the old part is probably done.
