Power Steering Fitting Size

I'm replacing the power steering pump on my '97 F150 with the 4.6W engine and 4WD. It has been very straight forward until I attempted to take off the high pressure line from the pump to the steering box. What size is it? 17mm and 11/16ths is too small and 19mm and 3/4ths is too large. Is it an 18mm?

Thanks, Neil

Hi NeilC and welcome to FTE

Yes it's 18 mm.
And you dont have to reinstall the bolt that is behind the fitting when you go to put it back together. Ford did away with the 4th bolt in about 1999 I think.
