Nothing personal, Action, but unless you start at the beginning of this thread, your comments are irrelevant to the conversation. ”the two things” would be the PS cooler, PS pump, and more. I’m just not up for the time/trouble/effort/expense of the crimped/swaged/fitted hose project and...

The smooth stuff's on it now (PN 6490610019/12338957, stock part #s), should be fine, just want to start with good hose. 12 feet total. (23" + 41" + 45" + 29" with fudge factor), have the HP (blue) hose already. I'll PM you, Juan. Got your paypal info. Thanks.

Thanks, Juan. Having a bear of a time even finding this stuff in stock. H10106 shows up as either discontinued, out of stock, can be ordered, and at prices from $2.50/foot delivered to almost $7.00, with several suppliers selling aftermarket (Chicom? Mexican? Who knows) hose WITH the WH part...

Yeah, most likely. I had stainless steel braided hose on a Norton 850 Commando many years ago cinched up with 1/4" hose clamps, didn't weep or anything. I called around, no go for instock hose H10106 Weatherhead 3/8 at NAPA or several other places, but I CAN order it in bulk (50 feet spool)...

Well, that’s where it gets really freaking interesting, you know? The stock hoses are all the stiffer, reinforced stuff with a polyethyline liner (not nitrile) and they’re held in place with simple hose clamps. The newer, higher pressure hydraulic hose, while metal/wire reinforced, has a...

Found this on Dr. Evil’s jungle site: https://smile.amazon.com/JGB-JFlex-Hydraulic-Hose-Length-1-Wire/dp/B0107OADUU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1523843175&sr=8-2&keywords=3%2F8+hydraulic+hose+bulk This look right? I can have it here Tuesday, no driving around amongst the gray hair crowd or rush...

Thing is, I started with the low pressure fittings (single hump, hose clamp), which shows up in the repair manuals, NOT in the parts manuals - those show the later, Aeroquip-type fittings with a bleeder fitting near the solenoid. I upgraded to the newer fittings. Question now is, who has the...

If I had a hose full of nickels... Specifically, if I had THIS hose: 6490610019 http://www.nsn-now.com/Indexing/PublicSearch.aspx Which I didn’t, so after pouring over the web looking for one of any of branded part numbers listed, the ONLY one I could find was the stock part numbered hose...

Well, after doing it the OTHER way, start engine, turn hard left, turn off, repeat fifteen minutes later to the right, and again, and again, until the foam went away. Of course, cranking on the hose clamps at the pump seemed to help. Ahem. New hose is on order, have clamps, have truck in the...

I thought of you when I wrote this up. I'd intended to replace all the hoses when I bought the thing two years (18 months and counting) ago, just never got around to it, or a few other things. Got the correct hose ordered from Mac Motors, will drain system and do some plug and play soon...

Curiously, as I poke through the manuals, it looks like the low-pressure fittings were original issue; the high-pressure fittings later, but I bought them, installed them, bled the power steering system by the instructions everyone else seems to swear by (the later ones, with the pump mfr advice...

Thanks, Juan, Action, Simp7862 (if that’s your real name). Wrong fitting, wrong hose, will try and order in the AM (MacMotors has ‘em). FEDEX from PA is about 24 hrs, if they’re open Easter Monday. Easier/cheaper just to buy the right part. Have it made up at NAPA? No thanks, they’re morons...

Sort of. Pressure hose from cadillac valve to shroud connector came off. Had installed valve about a month ago, used new piece of hose. Fuel line, 50psi. What was I thinking, right? It was what was on it, I didn’t give it any thought. Bled system, tested fan/TDM/clutch - runs great. Couple...
