What parts do I need to replace the high pressure powersteering hose (one on top) ?. It's slowly leaking at the rubber hose where it meets the crimp and the main steel line that goes down under the rad. Are there any washers that go with it? Does it come apart at that joint?

I might be interested in doing the Saginaw conversion but should I be worried about the proper fitting of the different lines. But my pump doesn't whine when it's full of fluid, so I might skip it for now.

Figured I'd get on this before it decides to blow apart and make a mess.

 

I cant remember what exact part I bought, but when it blows it blows. The hose comes as a complete unit. Follow the torque instructions or you can damage the unit. 24 ft/p comes to mind.
