Nice Description… :roll:

Try taking a pic that might work out better.

that’s one of the two hardlines attached to the steering rack.

they’re usually rusted and difficult to remove without stripping them… vice grips worked well for me.

is that a normal part to rust out and leak? i fill my resevoir up, and after just a couple hours its empty again.

That is not good.
You should try posting a WTB thead and see if you can get one that doesn’t leak.

or run without PS and build up your lower arm strength

ha, ive been driving without PS for 2 weeks now, my arms are getting tight!

rent a flaring tool, get 2 new fittings and bend up your own. total cost maybe 15$ if that.

what other things can i look at as far as PS fluid leaking

PM the user “TM” , he might have what you need. :wink:

thanks dude, i just sent him a pm, i gotta figure out what line is leaking so i can get a new one, or order a new one

i have the whole rack if you want 35$

what all is included in that? i dont have my car part manual here with me

includes the thing in our pic with the 2 rubber boots and the rods comming out of them. on a crossmember…no outter tie rod ends.
