Review on Gates 365571 Pressure Steering Assembly by Paul Randall

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not tight.: Replacement parts

I bought this hose with a new pump and pulley. I was afraid the old hose would leak or clog as my truck has many miles. (trying to anticipate possible problems) I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7. Be careful with this hose, over tightening the fitting on the hydraulic pump side can be a nightmare as mine leaked for two days until I replaced it with an AC Del Co brand. Keep in mind that the fitting is primarily aluminum and can be easily removed, which happened to me. Otherwise the hose made a good impression. In retrospect, I should have just left the old one until I had to replace it. Ah, lesson learned.

Pros
  • The connection at the disconnected end of the return assembly is done with regular worm drive clamps
Cons
  • Null
