Power Steering Hoses
« on: September 14, 2010, 11:39:03 PM »
Every time I check the new 'correct' power steering hoses are not available from NPD yet for my 6cyl.  Has anyone found them available anywhere else?  Anyone know if or when they may become available?  What are my options my originals are too far gone to trust anymore.  It doesn't look like any good originals are available.  I haven't even seen NOS and they would probably be out of price range if I did.  Are the replacement ones acceptable?

The nice thing about 6cyl hoses is when they come up they aren't that expensive. I see them fairly regularly on ebay

  Those are the ones that NPD has listed but doesn't actually have.  I can't find anyone else that has them either so I suspect they haven't actually built any yet.  Its just odd that NPD would have a part number if they don't plan on building any.

You can order them directly from Blue Dot. They sure are made, I've already bought 3 sets
