I have a constant drip of PS fluid where the hoses from the PS pump connect to the steering gear (or rack and pinion). I can't find any reference to power steering hose seals at the parts stores. Can someone tell me what the seals look like, where I can get them, and if it is a difficult job to replace them? Is the same seal used for both hose connections? I can access the area easily enough (once I rotated the fan shroud out of the way). I tried tightening the bolt securing the hold down plate, but the drip seemed to get worse. I attached a picture showing the connection.

Thanks for any advice you can give,
Mark

 

There is 1 O-ring on each of the tubes.
I'm not sure of their diameter or thickness but I have replaced one after loosing it while swapping out a new rack.

 

You asked for it.....

 

Ha! I did ask for it!

 

Do you remember where you got the replacement o-ring?

 

You can get a whole kit that would probably have your size in it at Harbor Freight for only $7.99 ($6.40 with coupon)

You can also go to your local parts store, they have a kit that they will sell by the piece. .29x.44 x.07 size RockAuto

Or as BrokenHalo stated, buy a whole kit also available on

 

Sorry, my neighbor had a huge assortment kit in his HVAC work truck. I miked the diameter and thickness and we found it.

 

@TAINTER Do you remember which size the o-rings were? A friend of mine does HVAC too, I also have a set of black ones(std. sizes) I got a few years ago.
Thank you.

 

When you change it out. Go like for like on the O Ring...
