High pressure connection on power steering

[William]

Hello,

On the subject of hose replacement - I am planning on replacing transmission
cooler
hoses on our 83 FC 35 this weekend. The upper one is leaking at the tranny
connection.
The coach has less than 75K on it and I'm pretty sure these are original hoses.
From
what I read, its probably a good Idea to change these out because of their age.
Weather
permitting (its getting cold up here), we will do this outside on the ground.
One of the
hoses connects on an angle near the top of the tranny just above the PTO cover.
This is a
tough spot to get to from below. After reading about the floor assess for the PS
I am
wondering if there is an access panel from above to get to this tranny cooler
hose? If it
has to be done from below are there any tips on doing this that might ease the
pain?

Thanks- Bill in NH
