Power Steering Hose replacement question

[Leon R]

My PS started leaking a few weeks ago. I beleive the sourse is the "top hose swadge" fitting, just about the gear box. Does anyone know if that is the high pressure line?

Auto zone only lists one hose for our trucks:

(Advace Autopart lists the same number)

Is this the line that I need?

The rubber part of the hose is cheap 18-50$..The metal pipe part that goes under the radiator is 120$+..I made a shorter metal piece...Metric fittings and pipe..used 3/8 brake or fuel line..Double flair. and the old fittings...Messy job..warning do not take off fitting at the pump you will lose the brass/copper washer somewareI took off the tire and rubber splash guard and spend hours getting it back together....TonyB

nope - not if its the hose that goes from the gearbox to the resevoir - i coulddnt find that one anywhere and was going to have one made - then i realized that it was the hose clamp underneath the resevoir leaking and the fluid was following the hose down to the pressure fitting making it look like that was the culprit - worth checking first
