Replacing The High Pressure Power Steering Hose

[Gardner Yeaw]

OK, I’m wondering if a small catch pan under the PS unit and a little
windshield washer pump returning the leaked fluid to the reservoir would be
much easier for us older folks with a physical flexibility problem. (Hehe)

Gardner. An older wannabe, almost a be.

WAIT Eric, NO SAWZALL Yet, OUCH!!

On our 88 FC , I removed the batteries and
(maybe the battery tray), Look up under the bumper and cut the wire
ties and loosen the bundle of wires and hoses. Used a crows foot
and a long extention, This is a two person job, to turn the wrench
and the helper must move the crows foot with each 1/8 turn of the
wrench. I think the fittings were the same both ends.
