PS Hose replacements

Hey all,

I'm really loving the learning experience I'm getting with my V3 install and I'm at the point where I'm re-routing my PS lines and PS cooler.

I found this on the interwebz, " The more prudent course of action is obvious: Look for the SAE J-spec number—or in the case of some European nameplates, the DIN number—on the original hose, and match it on the replacement." Does anyone know that the PS return hose number is? I've looked but cant seem to find it.

I found this: http://www.carparts.com/details/Edel...e/EP81206.html The Mfg states, "Power steering bulk return hoses have burst strength of 1,000 PSI with oil temperature ranges between 275-300 degrees farenheit." will this be comparable to OEM return hose specs? Anyone know?

Decided to clean up the post a little

I always go a hydraulic shop and have them make the line. They have an assortment of hoses and fittings. It's cheap too! Take the OE hose in and they will be able to match or exceed the specs.
