This line that comes out of the back of my power steering pump is ruptured on the bottom, and sprays out fluid when I turn...where do I get a new one?

https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...151190&width=0

 

There is a pressure line and a return line

Both are available at any parts house.

 

I got mine through Kragen for pretty cheap.
As Mil1ion put it, they're available just about anywhere.

 

and if one is so old that it ruptured, then you'd probably better replace both.

 

If you go to the parts store to get one bring the old one with you to make sure you get the right one. Or take the one you got to a hydraulic shop and have them make you a new one.

 

I had mine made at a tractor shop out of a heavyer braided hose and only spent 30.00 for both hoses just a thought

 

Thanks guys got one from checker for 18 bucks.

 

When replacing hoses always install a return line filter.

Mine got toasted from rubbing on the header. Picking a new one up today form a local parts store.

 

I know this is not the original topic of the thread, but I'm bringing this back to the top.

I need help finding one of these filters. After seeing this thread I searched a little bit on here and found a couple old threads that mention this filter - where people have found them and for how much. After reading that I searched eBay and found nothing. Went to the Ford dealer and they told me the Ford part number was changed and that instead of "AA" on the end - it was now an "E". Better yet - they wanted $76 for this kit. This doesn't sound right at all after hearing the prices others paid for theirs.

Anyone from the Southern California area find one of these in a local autoparts store? Anyone know a spot online?
I forgot to take the Wix part # with me so I didn't hit any parts stores yet. Just trying to find if someone knows who would carry it around here. On the old threads I saw O'Reilly and schucks or Car Quest having them (possibly), but we don't have any of those chains around me...

1 last question - wouldn't an inline fuel filter (metal case of course) off a carbed vehicle do the same thing????

TIA
Steve

That will work - thanks Dennis.

I wonder why nothing came up when I did a search on Froogle.com - it usually comes up with online suppliers.

 

You can buy them at any parts store that has WIX filters. The filter runs about $15 depending on your "discount".

I bought a bunch of the Ford kits off ebay.

A fuel filter is absolutely not the same thing. Unless of course you want to trash your tranny or blow up your PS lines.

 

how would a fuel filter trash the tranny or blow up PS lines? Just curious...

 

The WIX filter above has an internal bypass valve. When the filter clogs the fluid will bypass the filter element and keep flowing. A fuel filter does not have a bypass valve so when the filter clogs up it will either blow out the media and release a ton of dirt into the system or it will completely block off and cause the pressure in the line to rise to the point where the weakest spot blows up.
