Re: IML: Power Steering Hose

Gates used to have the return hose in I believe a 4 ft box. Another thing you might try is get a used set that was part of the cooler setup. I think that was preformed & is heavier then the replacement stuff.

When my power steering hose blew I had a lot of trouble finding a replacement.  Finally I took the old hose to a local hydraulic shop and asked if they could duplicate it.  They did.  It's certainly not original but it works and only cost me $35.  Took them about 10 minutes to put it together.

Does anyone know of a source for a suitable hose use in a power steering cooler application for a 1966 Imperial?  While I can find ?short lengths? of reinforced return hose (between the steering box and pump), they are not long enough to reach or return from the cooler. 

 

Thanks
