How do properly hang/support the power steering hoses


Recommended Posts

Posted

I cannot seem to get my power steering hoses high enough off the ground to prevent them from scraping!  The need enough flex to allow the control valve to move end to end, but they still hang dangerously close to the ground.  Is the picture or template to show how to properly attach them to the frame?

OK, I got my hoses routed with maximum ground clearance.  So, back to the first problem of no assist.  I disconnected the ram from the idler arm and had an assistant turn the steering wheel lock to lock.  The ram does not extend or retract until the wheels are turned all the way to the max in either direction.  The control valve adjusting nut is set correctly.  So do I most likely have a  bad control valve or ram? I have a new pump as well.
