what to change on return hose
- Thread starter Toyotaxtreamteam
- Start date
which line?
the pressure line from the pump is a PITA to change unless you take off some parts. Haven't had to do anything with the return lines though.

Yea. The pressure line sucks to do. I did it without taking any extra pieces off and it was a PITA to do. Took me about 2 hours. But thats cuz I was doing it at night. Plus ur hands start getting all slippery and harder to hold everything.

anyone have pictures of what hose is what on the power steering unit, like the pressure hose and return and why is there some metal tubing that goes where the headlights are
I'm installing a new ps pressure hose today. Mine is spraying fluid everywhere. Never done it before. I'm about to lift the car up to do it soon. I'll try to take some pics.
I don't think your lines are even close to the headlights though. The pressure line runs from a banjo bolt into rubber hose from the ps pump, under the motor as a hard metal pipe, back to rubber hose to the ps rack.

on the return hose is there special way to get the rubber off thats all that needs to be changed right
well i went back out seems like it may be the rubber on return hose, thats the one that runs side of the pressure one going to a metal pipe that goes in the front of the car and back into the engine compartment
I think you just need wrenches for the pressure hose. I thought just the pressure hose was leaking on your car. Gimme a little time and I'll send some pics of mine.
If you need the pressure hose, I have one FS!
