im in the middle of doing an ls1 swap and we snapped a power steering line while dropping in the engine. ive searched all over this site and google and cannot find the lines. the line i broke is 1 of the 2 hardlines that runs along the back side of the power steering pump. If anyone has a part number or knows where i can get this line from i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks

people will tell you to go to junk yard . im not sure what line you mean. i know they sell copper tubing for the brake lines at the local auto parts place. about a dollar a foot.

i tried autozone and they dont have it, and i called the stealership they only sell the full assembly (all lines) for 400 and i dont have 400 left over to spend on power steering **** lol. IF anyone was one of these lines i'll buy it right away.

you can have them made at any industrial hydrolic hose house neer you..you can even send your old hose off to a hydrolic hose maker and have them ship ya one back..they will make it EXACTLY like the old one..or a custom one of your own desighn for around 50 to 150 bucks..good luck.
