Dorman 979-116 Power Steering Return Hose for Toyota Models - Optimize Your Search! Review

Very good spare part, do not forget to loosen the straps a little before installing. This will allow you to better align the mounting screws. Difficult place to replace returning but that's not the part's fault. It's on Mr. Toyota. Overall happy customer, saved hundreds.

Item arrived on the expected date and in good condition. Although the piece is about 1 inch longer than the original, there is no fitment issue. The hardest part was pulling the old one off as there wasn't enough room to move both hands to pull the hose out. I had to match the clips that came with the kit to the screw holes.

The metal tube appears to be about an inch longer than the old one, causing the brackets to be a bit out of place. On the other hand it has kinks etc like an OEM part. That little extra length isn't a problem unless you connect them to the hoses and then find that your brackets don't line up with the…

02 Highlander. I had to remove the passenger wheel and a small plastic panel in the wheel well. The only issue with this line is that the centers of the mounting clips were offset by about an inch. Put the old and new lines side by side to check what I should have done. I couldn't move the post's side clamp to the right an inch because it was too tight. But this one will be the easier one to move away from the two. I used a length of short 3/8 hose with a plug on the end to prevent spilling out
