Review on πŸ’ͺ Gates 365453 Power Steering Pressure Line Hose Assembly - Superior Quality for Smooth Steering by Sonny Flores

Revainrating 1 out of 5

should have bought factory parts

took up this hose when my transmission failed. I decided to replace the pump and all hoses as it is an old truck. Firstly, the threads on them are a nightmare to smooth and tighten, but really just an inconvenience (and one of the two gate hoses I ordered was missing an O-ring, I had to reuse a 13 year old factory hose). I jacked up the car, removed both front wheels and bled the system. The hose exploded at the pinch point when the wheel was completely locked up, putting 2 liters of fresh fluid down my path and causing a headache as it's the hardest hose to reach with a pump installed. thanks gates I'm glad I didn't drive or I would have lost my brakes and steering because of that hose rupture. I wouldn't put his hose on my worst enemy's car. Conclusion: If you have a desire to experience highway driving without driving your truck, this is the perfect product for you.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
