power steering Line leaks

Hello, I have that leak in my Tacoma it's a problem I changed the rack and it followed I want to know what the line of the photo is if it is the pressure or the back and also where I could get it for a good price, thank you.

 

If it has clamps it should be return.

Crimped fittings and nuts indicate pressure.

If the line is molded to fit around things I'd check a Toyota price, then NAPA then Rock Auto

 

Is it leaking from the clamp or the fitting? If it's the clamp you might try replacing just the clamp, as mentioned that is the return line and doesn't hold a lot of pressure. It kinda looks like the hose can go further on the fitting too.

In a pinch/hurry you could try local parts stores. When I replaced my rack the cams of the fitting were bunged up and no way was I putting them on a new rack. Local Autozone had a Dorman in stock, replaced whole line but it wasn't cheap IMO, $145.

 

Had a new pressure hose made at a hydraulic hose shop for an old ride once. Took in the old hose as their pattern. Got a new hose for about 1/2 dealer cost and more accurate than aftermarket IMHO

 

Napa carries the high pressure hose from the pump to the rack. Its like $130 IIRC. The return line with the hose clamps is 3/8 I think. I just bought a couple feet from he part store. I would buy new self tensioning hose clamps from the dealer though.

 

Gates makes plug and play hoses for these...

ordered thru a-zone and got em next day.

The HP one was like $130......and the return was around 85ish.....


when they're as old as yours, it has surely started to delaminate from the inside/out....

 

Mine did the same, it was rotting from the inside out. Replaced the entire high and low pressure assembly like others have said. Got mine at O'reilly's, they had it in stock.
