Hydroboost question
Quick question about the hose that goes between the bottom of the remote fluid resivior and the top of the PS/Hydroboost pump (on the front of the motor)...
Does anyone know whether that's a fitted (i.e. molded) hose (as it appears it should be due to the angles of the bends) with a part number, or not? Thanks.

Yes, it's a molded hose. I don't have a part number though.

Re: Hydroboost question
If you have a local hydrolic supply or fitting shop usually they can make you a replacement hose quick and for a decent price. No need for ordering one.

Re: Hydroboost question
Thanks guys, I figured it was molded due to the angles. Local parts places don't have a pn either. Guess I'm going to have to spend some QT on the racks or just pick up some aluminum elbows and make something.
Irish, I'm talking about the rubber hose between the pump and the resivoir not the lines from the pump to the steering box/brake booster. It's just push on rubber hose.

Re: Hydroboost question
A lot of full size vans and Astro vans have the remote reservoir, one of them might work well if you cut it down to size.
