Power steering pump hoses

I am participating in the Redhead group buy and am thinking of replacing the hoses while at it. I recall someone talking about an improved version but can't find the thread or info of where to get them. Are they as simple as NAPA?

Curious too. I have my power steering hoses off as well.

Don't know of an upgraded hose, but I'd recommend changing at least the high pressure hose with the swivel connection on the side. That's the one that always seems to blow.

Link to redhead group buy please? I might want to join in.

Hope this works for you.
We are scheduled to make our purchase from July 8th-10th. You can order online or by phone. it's important that you tell RHS that you are part of the Ford-Truck forum group buy. If you order online you will still need to contact RHS via email or phone and let them know that you ordered and are part of the Ford-Truck forum group buy.

If your name is not on the list, don't worry. You can still get the discount as long as you purchase during the specified buying dates and you mention that you are part of the Ford-Truck forum group buy.

Sorry for the slow communication this weekend. Drove the family to San Diego for a 4day weekend. I'll be sending PM's out to everyone this week.

Don't see a link. Interested to see the discount amount. Not looking forward to removing the pitman arm.

I've been doing some research on the hose issue and found some Gates hoses at Rock Auto. Anyone have any experience with these quality wise? Have always had the impression that Gates was quality stuff but things do change.
Thanks,
Mike
