ATF is slowly leaking from hairline cracks at the ends of the hoses connecting the reservoir to the pump, and, the other hose that connects to the reservoir.

So, I'm looking to replace them.

The 2 hoses are:

a) 'Reservoir to Pump'
b) 'Return'

In anycase, my question is - has anyone repalced them by themselves?
Are there any hidden suprises that I should look out for?

And, do you know if the hoses come w/ any clamps, etc... ?


Thanks - Your help would be most appreciated.

You didn't state which year or engine size, but this i pretty straight forward. Clamps normally do not come with the hoses. Good Luck

Gosh. I didn't even specify car. Sorry, spaced out.

Anyone else replaced hoses for power steering?


Thanks!
