Was hoping someone could help me out with this. I need to replace some of my power steering hoses due to leakage on my '02 3.9. I need two hoses:
--High Pressure Line From Rack to Cooler
--Low Pressure Line from Cooler to Reservior
My repair shop quoted me $900. Not that I can't afford it, I would just prefer not to pay it and I have some time off next week, so I figured why not try to fix it myself.
Anyone with experience care to throw me a bone? Like how tough of a job this is. I've already replaced the pressure switch myself. I posted in another thread, but got no response.
Should I just replace all of the hoses since I'm going to be doing this? I understand there are 4. I copied these parts from the other thread:
power steering pressure lower hose (3F524)
power steering pressure hose (3E576)
power steering reservoir pump hose (3E525)
power steering return hose (3A713)
Can I get these at O'Reilly or Autozone? Do I have to get them from the dealer? I have no idea on how to look these up other than google. I found them on a site called YOYO part.
Last question is if I should only replace the two hoses that need it, then which ones are they exactly.
