Hello Sages, I took a vehicle out of storage and as I was running it discoverd a PS Leak. I wanted to replace the Hoses - The Pressure Side Hose is listed and easy to find, but the Return hose is oddly not. so I just need to confirm the tubing size of the return hose. I think it's 3/8" but I just wanted to be sure before I order anything. This would be on a 78 Dodge B Van. Thanks, Greg |

If I remember correctly That return hose is just a piece of 3/8 hose, that is held on the fitting with clamps. Just make sure you use Auto trans hose, not all hose is compatable with the fluid. Spec. S.A.E. J189 Return Hose |

J189 Return Hose x2... if you had the FSM for the vehicle, they sometimes list the length of the return hose in the steering section. |

Thanks Guys, I was aware that the Hose was not any regular "heater" hose or "fuel" Hose. I wanted to verify the Inside Diameter. Thank you for the help! I hope my leak is just due to expired return hose or clamps - since its on the van I need to remove the washer bottle to really inspect and check out whats going on there. Cheers! Greg |
