Power Steering Hose

Installation

Included in the FR1610 kit is a ½” feed line that connects from
the remote reservoir to the power steering pump. This is attached
using the 2 stainless steel hose clamps. The 3/8” Double
Crimped Pressure Line will attach the pressure port of the power
steering pump and to the pressure side of your steering gear. AN
fittings with o-rings are included to complete the installation. The
single crimped 3/8” line is used for the return line from the
steering gear to the reservoir. This will attach to the steering gear
to the reservoir using a AN Fitting and the ¼”NPT barbed fitting
with a stainless steel hose clamp.

Custom length hose kits can be ordered from Flaming River by
providing a drawing with dimensions.

When cutting the stainless steel hose it is easier to use a chop
saw or cut off wheel. Wrap the hose in black electrical tape and
cutting through the tape to help avoid fraying. You may need to
use a side cutter to trim any frayed stainless steel line.

The lines can be installed to the 90 degree fittings loose until to
ensure proper line routing. To tighten, hold the line itself and
tighten the fittings to 10-12 ft lbs.

Note: Over crimping or kinking the line my cause damage to the
Teflon liner and voids warranty.
