Hi guys,

Looks like the power steering line has corroded some and is leaking by a hose clamp.
The corroded line is in between 2 hoses. Is the line special and be bought separate, or can another type of line work just as well?

Thanks

 

....pic's? Hard to call which line you are talking about by your post.

 

Pick out the part number on this picture??

 

The set up is a hose coming from the reservoir hose into a apx. 14 inch line that that fits into another hose. Its corroded some and leaking pretty good by the clamp.
If I had to pick something from the diagram it would be the line in between #18 to #17 or #22 to #20

Thank you all for your help.

 

Those are "low" pressure hoses. So if you get a hose rated for the fluid - don't use fuel line - and can route it so there are no kinks you will be fine......a foot or two of hose and a few clamps and done.

 

Yeah, it looks like part #32 is a big rats-nest of steel tube that's all welded together as one part with it's mounting bracket?? Not sure if any of those tubes carry high-pressure fluid. If it's getting corroded you should keep an eye on it before a high-pressure tube lets go.

You should be able to just use a hose like Poorman says, but when it's time to do the high-pressure lines you have to be a bit more careful with clamps & connections.

 

Does anybody know where to get a good deal on line 17 and 20 and some decent clamps if this hose don't fit exactly it leaks ...I have mine plugged off for regular steering right now please help anybody.....

 

There are a few online dealers you could try (bernardi, majestic, ect), just know that shipping will be added. Might print off the online price and stop by your local dealer and see if they will match the price (be nice and I bet they will).
