The rubbed hole in my power steering hard lines....

 

^shoulda gone Vortech right from the start!

 

damn chris! well it looks like it was just one... we might have been able to get you home from xdc with that gehto fix.

how bad was it getting them out?

 

easy fix man, you're lucky.

 

it was probably only a true hour job to remove and so forth.....I am going today to get custom stainless braided lines made that are flexible so that I can move them out of the way.

easy fix true but still probably 200-300 dollar fix unfortunately!

100.00 for new rack and pinion...probably 100.00 if not more for the new lines being made...

 

How's everything coming together with your transmission?

 

better pic of the hole.

 

that pic made me fap a hole through my underoos

 

nothing some gorilla glue and duck tape can't fix

 

man look at the heat burns too... I can't imagine that helped with your power steering temps lol!

 

Yea, I know SS lines are obviously stronger, but I'm not sure they're going to disapate the heat like an aluminum line would. I could be wrong, just throwing that idea out there

 

they should be fine, we have a powersteering cooler built in. as long as its not taking in heat from the turbo shouldn't be a big deal.

 

I finished this vid up thismorning, its from XDC roll out.

 

james, tranny is getting fixed next week. 145$ in parts, but that includes strong pivot ball thing, SS clutch lines, and new tranny, clutch, and diff fluid. first time doing diff fluid.

plus labor, i'm out a few hundred bucks, but might as well do it right. Wish i had the $ for a new clutch and fw, but i'll just beat the crap outta my stock ones till they screw up.

 

Chris, you can cut and swedge the line rather than getting new lines made. It's much cheaper and will be less time consuming.

We did it all the time on the F-16 with 4000 psi hydro lines.
