Hello and thanks for allowing me to post great site.
I have had this car 3 months. And I'm playing big time catch up on missed maintenance.
The power steering pump is gone. I found another used one. Looks like a low mileage pump. Went to change it out. Applied JB it's like Moveit. Every day for a week. Now there was no chance in hell I could get the pressure line to crack from the pump I had the car on a hoist and it was a all day affair that resulted in me still driving it with Armstrong steering I paid 100 for the used pump which I feel was to much now I'm seeing this hose if I order it will be 100 bucks. So I hit pause. Any ideas guys can I get a hose made up I'm sure the flavored end on the old hose is probably no good anyhow I'm open to all comments ty

I would have taken the pressure hose with the pump.

Napa can make a hose. At least here in Jacksonville. Mike has had lots of them made over the years back when he built mud trucks for fun. June
