Power Steering Hose Kit for LS Engine Swaps
Standard power steering hoses often collide with frame rails or the firewall when installing an LS pump in a tight chassis, creating routing obstacles and leak risks. This Power Steering Hose Kit pairs a stainless steel braided high-pressure supply hose with a premium nylon return line, each fitted with precision machined connectors that match early and late steering boxes and remove extra adapter unions. Builders will appreciate how quick connect fittings and factory torque spec hardware cut bench time and guide correct routing on first try. Labels for supply and return lines guide plumbing and preserve steering feel and fluid integrity in street builds and on the track.
Stainless Steel Braid Protects Under High Pressure
The stainless steel braid encasing the supply hose offers more than just a sleek appearance. It shields the inner tube from abrasion by engine components and road debris, and its metal weave resists corrosion caused by heat and chemical exposure. When the power steering pump jumps to full output, the braid prevents the hose from expanding or collapsing, preserving consistent fluid delivery and protecting pump longevity. Over repeated driving cycles this durability reduces service intervals and cuts the risk of surprise failures, whether you are tackling tight street corners or demanding track work.
Premium Nylon Return Line Ensures Smooth Flow
The return hose is molded from a race grade nylon that maintains rigidity even after extended exposure to hot power steering fluid. A polished interior surface keeps fluid turbulence to a minimum, which limits heat buildup and helps prevent aeration that can sap steering responsiveness. Because the line holds its shape, it avoids soft spots or kinks that often occur with generic hoses over time. The result is a stable return rate that delivers consistent steering feel under load and enhances driver confidence during long runs or spirited driving sessions.
Precision Fittings Simplify Steering Box Connection
Each end of both hoses terminates in machined fittings that match early and late style steering boxes without extra adapter unions. This direct interface aligns with factory port locations and cuts out potential leak points associated with stacked fittings. Clear supply and return labels guide plumbing during installation so that routing errors are virtually eliminated. By matching port angles precisely, the kit creates a tidy under hood layout that not only looks professional but also eases future maintenance.
Complete Kit Speeds Installation and Reduces Errors
This all-in-one steering kit arrives preassembled with both hoses attached to their connectors and includes every fitting and bolt needed for a straightforward swap. Builders can follow factory torque specifications and snap the quick connect couplers into place, moving from mock-up to fire-up in record time. By avoiding the hassle of sourcing separate adapters or verifying thread compatibility, you cut bench time dramatically and lower the chance of mismatched parts. Whether you are upgrading a daily driver or preparing a competition car, this kit streamlines the plumbing step and sets the stage for reliable steering performance from the moment you fire the engine.
This steering kit offers a precise fit and lasting performance for confident LS engine swaps.
