Re: 1970 C10 Power Steering Question

If I recall correctly, the pressure side of the power steering will see pressures as high as 1500 pounds. Do not use anything except specifically designed hose to fitting parts. I often see standard AN fittings with braded hose used. Given how often I see, I wonder why I blow off 2 after a few hours of track use on the race car using good quality hose and fittings. I have a custom hydraulic hose shop not far from me. The hose they made held up for years of track use. Be safe and use a correctly made hose with no adaptors or short cuts. PS fluid is very slippery and being at the forward location will create a bad situation should the fluid end up under a tire at speed.
