2011 kw t660 power steering hose? - jimeneztrans84 - 06-22-2019

Is the hose going from power steering fill tank to the pump just an ordinary hose or is it specially for power steering pressure? Mine is leaking and don't want to buy at steelership if I don't have to.

On my ProStar, it is just a regular hose from what I can tell. No high pressure clamps. Just make sure it has a solid wall and is not prone too collapsing. Me, I would use some hydraulic hose, call FleetPride. If you have a Parker store near by, they normally stock a good variety of quality hoses.

Yep, regular hose on my Casadia...although it does have a couple odd bends. Just a supply hose so no high pressure.

Tank to pump is low pressure and a regular rubber or silicone hose. Pump to steering box is high pressure hydraulic hose (some oreilly stores custom make those) gear box to cooler or directly back to tank is low pressure.
