Perfect for large power steering connector

I use all the custom lines for my power steering in my jeep and it worked great for the large connector (return) on the box itself. Looks great quality.

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • No performance

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Installing the pressure side of my steering box yj

had to have a new line made for another pump and the hard hose on the pressure side didn't work so ended up with a 90 fitting and a new line. . well made to fit the pressure side on the yj steering gear.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Almost never

Revainrating 4 out of 5

worked great. There was never a leak

I had to do the power steering return line to the Pontiac GTO in 2004 because I couldn't find it anywhere. screwed this into the power steering, then -6 a fitting on top with a hose nipple. worked great. never had a leak.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Something else

Be careful when ordering, it might be too short

Good fit but I need it longer. I accidentally ordered 648060 16mm so I assumed 648080 was 18mm thinking it would be the same length as 16mm but it isn't. Now I need to cut off the bottom of the hex so it can be screwed in further and maybe put a washer under the o-ring as well.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • not bad

Works mostly.

Fits perfectly in 98-02 fbody Camaro steering rack. The return (m16x1.5) and pressure connections (m18x1.5) have two different sizes. M16x1.5 is also used for the power steering pump, but the threads are too long and a few threads are open so I went a different way. Otherwise an excellent product.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive

This adapter is for the pump side of the power steering gear

This adapter is for the pump side of the Saginaw steering gear design on older GM vehicles (the thread diameter is slightly larger than the back diameter). The 6AN thread was a bit messy but that is the reason for the 4 stars. Not a big deal as I had an older 6AN female fitting laying around. Just running it a couple of times fixed the issue and installed it easily. It feels like a quality product. The o-ring does not sit in place so it can be easily removed if you are not careful with it.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Expensive
