WTB Original or NOS Big Block Power Steering Hose - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Classic Heartbeat** · 04-25-2014, 12:13 PM

I have started working with an OE manufacturer to produce our own exclusive line of power steering hoses. I want them to be factory correct or at the very least as close as possible. If I can pull this off we will be making new hoses by the hundreds bringing the cost of reproduction hoses down substantially, while keeping them made in the USA.
In order to do this I need either NOS or undamaged originals to use for templates. I need 2 sets of Big Block hoses to begin with. Let me know what you have. WES

Franks got some down the road from you

**chewychevy67** · 04-25-2014, 08:30 PM

Any chance of getting any ram assist hoses made?

cwilkie · 04-25-2014, 09:23 PM

Would a set from a 1971 c-20 work for you? It had a 402bb. I can send you pictures when I get home Wednesday.

Yes those will be the same. I know I had a set from a truck I had, I will have to do some searching.

Not from the company that I am working with right now. I would be sitting on several thousand dollars of inventory to be able to do it. Don't have the spair funds to do that with right now.

to the top.

**leddzepp** · 04-30-2014, 12:54 PM

I will post pics of one later tonight when I get home from work if nobody else does beforehand.

john@thepier · 04-30-2014, 01:45 PM

4x4 hoses would be a nice thing also to have made. You know I have been pestering you for a long time on these.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 04-30-2014, 05:13 PM

We will have to see how this goes first. I am getting quite a large exclusive part list now. Great for business but huge money for inventory. When you deal direct with manufacturers I can't just have 20 or 30 of something made. I have to have 1000 to 5000 pieces. WES

**Classic Heartbeat** · 04-30-2014, 05:14 PM

This is how I keep prices down.

**leddzepp** · 05-01-2014, 02:44 AM

OEM from a 72. It shares the frame clamp alongside the return line, and has a clip that attaches to the front top bolt on the frame stand.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-01-2014, 12:17 PM

How much do you want for it? Looks good to me. PM or call me 360-570-1860 WES

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-01-2014, 12:18 PM

Would still need another one. I need one to send to the manufacturer and one for me to use to compare the prototype with. WES

cwilkie · 05-01-2014, 10:16 PM

Here is what I have. They are still on the truck.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-02-2014, 01:41 PM

That one looks like it has been bent around a bit. What do you want for it? If leddzepp gets back to me with the one he has, I may be able to straiten it enough to compare the prototype with. I have to send a perfect one to the manufacturer. WES

cwilkie · 05-03-2014, 12:03 AM

Maybe you could give me a discount on a few parts. I can take it off and clean them over the weekend. Then send you more pics.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-03-2014, 12:13 PM

Ya, I would be up for that. WES

cwilkie · 05-03-2014, 03:36 PM

I emailed you more photos Wes.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-07-2014, 03:06 PM

TTT waiting for response from leddzepp. WES

**Classic Heartbeat** · 05-07-2014, 09:08 PM

Still need one more. WES
