Fits like OEM on return hoses

Fits like OEM. I had to move the brackets. I wish the new mounts were included or at least available for purchase. Significantly cheaper than the local parts store.

Pros
  • Steering system
Cons
  • Upgrade availability

The gate is ok, not the best quality in what I got.

Firstly this is a high pressure hose - misadvertised, check details on Gates website. The one I received had a manufacturing defect on the end of the gear - ground down the defect and it doesn't leak. Odd as Gates is a quality product.

Pros
  • Power steering
Cons
  • Cargo

Cut off the old hose!

I have a lift in my workshop so the job was very easy. It took some time, but don't be afraid to saw off the old hose and use the connector to remove the bottom of the power steering pump. I gloved the oil filter bracket with a 3" air cutter to saw off the hose but there was plenty of room. As others have said it would have been nice to have clamps already installed on the hose but the cost would probably go through the roof if they were included. No leaking, no dripping, no bugs. Works…

Pros
  • Return hoses
Cons
  • Only available in white
