Well i fixed it, had to run to lowes and get a hose and some clamps. but turned out to fix good. Thanks for the help.
I no longer gave a power steering leak anymore :hd: :updance::playing: Heres some pics of the fix. |
Cool....hopefully that hose can handle oil (or ps fluid).
On the plus side the red hose adds 10hp to your engine:choochoo: |
A WHOLE 10 HORSEPOWER!!!
wow im up to 682 now!! :hd: the hose leaked at first, but only because i didn't clamp it hard enough, But not it works good, and steers with ease. |
Aww just put synthetic in it and that will fix the leak.:w2:J/K tracy!

Holy crap the hose failed on me last night, https://www.dieselbombers.com/attach...e-img00249.jpg
The hose clamp on the bottom came out and blew power steering fluid all over the underside of my truck. bad thing was when i found out the hose blew off was right after i did a 130mph run on the west park toll way, im guessing the high rpms drove the pws pump to make enough pressure to blow the hose off. Kinda sucks cause i tried to change lanes when i turned onto the belt way and noticed that my power steering was out, made me come to the conclusion that when i was pushing 3700+rpms the hose popped off and the whole system got drained in about one minute later, so i had no power steering and no hydro-boost. So i had to limp my truck to the nearest parking lot with no brakes and no power steering from the beltway going 80mph. But i managed to fix it in the parking not and refill my pws system cause it was bone dry and steaming when i popped the cap off. that was an eye opener:nshock: |
Holy crap! That could have ended badly. Glad you are O.K. Get rid of that band-aid fix,and go to the dealer get the right hose.
|
Im calling the dealer tomo to order the part, I don't want that hose to ever pop off ever again.
and yeah i got lucky, good thing there was hardly any traffic. and That good ole' Alison did the braking for me |
I replaced the hose today with the OEM hose i purchased from the dealer today. charged me 32 bones but i don't have to worry about loosing my power steering fluid again on the free way, i might not be so lucky next time:rake:
