Re: Greg65 build thread
Nothing yet. When the engine and transmission come back out I will have to drill and tap the hole. Other than the alternator getting mounted today, very little progress. Hoping my power steering pump comes in Monday.

Got all the accessories for my serpentine system mounted today. I still have to measure for the belt and make up the power steering hoses. Looks like i'll be borrowing a page from Alan's truck and using -an fittings on my hoses.

Last night I started working on my power steering lines. After seeing braided lines on a friend's street/strip truck a few years ago I knew this was a upgraded that my truck would have. Also after seeing them again on Alan's truck my mind was made up. The pressure line is completed and waiting to get the fitting for the return line. After reading Alan's build thread Aggie91 posted a part number for a fitting that looked perfect (parker 6 xhbu-s). Here is a list of the line and fittings I used so far.
All are -6an Russell Performance numbers: 632610 powerflex hose six feet length 1) 648050 -6 to 11/16" -18 inverted flare 2) 640380 -6 to 5/8" -18 inverted flares 3) 620421 -6an 90 degree endura shine hose ends Hope this helps |
Re: Greg65 build thread
Looks great Greg!! Did you fit the inner fender for clearance? It looks like it should be good. Looks better than mine. ;)

Looking really good nice plumbing work. You may already have a plan here but for your retune line at the pump you can use a AN hose union shave the threads off one side drill the hole in the side that you took the threads off so that it slips tightly over the hard line at the back of the pump and use silver solder to sweat fit it in place.

Re: Greg65 build thread
I Worked in hydraulics for some time and that is the first time I have seen a fitting like the one, Shannon came up with there. I could tell by the more squared off end of the nut that it was a compression fitting but that is the fist I seen that configuration tied to an AN-male, cool deal. Must be from the automotive specialty aftermarket. You bet post the manufacturer and P/N for sure.

I'm sure Greg will post a list of parts used for this phase of his build but since I have the part # handy for the fitting I'll go ahead and post it. Hopefully he won't mind.;) The fitting is a Parker #6 XHBU-SS. Quote:
Just trying to give back a little. I've gained so much info and help from this board and its members, that I try to pitch in where I can. Semper Fi!:flag: |
Re: Greg65 build thread
Where does one get the parker fitting? Also the new hose set up looks great but I think Id look for some nicer clamps??
