Power steerig Hose: HELP!
I am trying to get the power steering back on my truck. I have found the correct pressure hose, but i can find the right return line. I also can't find my old return line. I have tried 2 new return hose and can't find the right one. My truck is a 72 c10 with a 350. the hose brand can get is Omega by Corteco. Anyone able to give me a part number that works can be crossed, Anything? Thanks Jamie

Power Steering Return Hose
The hose is just regular 3/8" hose rated for oil. You can make the hard line. Just buy a one foot piece of 3/8" brake tubing put the bend in the one end and cut off the other end. Two hose clamps and your in business. No preasure on this line.

Just don't use fuel line some other people do, you can purchase 'power steering' return line, the pressure is rated a little higher. Return pressure is about 25-35 lbs.

My local Checkers had flexible transmission cooler lines that was identical to the material and shape of my return line. Wish I had a part number for ya, but hope this helps.

Power Steering Return Line
I bought mine from Early Classic Enterprises. It was perfect.
