P/S Control Valve hose seats

[Cotuit Boy]

I think I may have just learned the hard way that I should have replaced the seats in the power steering conrol valve when I rebuilt the system,  All works perfectly but I'm getting a small leak which I believe is coming from one of the  hose connections.  I'm seeing lots of seat kits for Mustangs but don't know if they would be correct for my 63 Avanti unit.  Can anyone share a source they recommend and part numbers and opinions.

My power steering control valve was refurbished by Randy Stanger in Leon Valley (San Antonio) Texas.  Randy is associated with the Mustang club and primarily works on Ford units.  He said that the Studebaker and Ford systems are virtually identical.  Randy replaced the seats in my Avanti's power ram and control valve.

Thanks for that lead. I'll call him if I don't hear from any of the other Forum members.
