Power Steering hoses

Happy new year to all. Well Methuselah is about to get a new lower steering shaft [flaming river FR1857-FD2S custom stainless steel], gear box and power steering pump [AGR 213678]. I am also replacing the lines. The Edelmann Stock number for Methuselah's power steering hoses are: 91847 & 71079. I am trying to find the equivelant in stainless steel. I know about March Performance braided steel lines, but you have to put fittings on one end - I would prefer to have both lines with fittings in place for both ends; like the aforementioned edelmann products. Anyone out in cyberFordland know anywhere I can find those lines in stainless steel? Thanks!

I can't really answer your question, but for the return line there is only one fitting anyway right? The other just slips on to the reservoir and uses a hose clamp?

The parts shop here in town can make compression fittings. Have you checked there to see if you can get a custom made hose?

Yes you are correct... What I want is stainless steel for the pre bent cooling lines and braided stainless for the rubber end of the return hose as well as the pressure line.

I could do that - but no one I know can fabricate the long pre-bent cooling line....that attached to the rubber hose.
