Hi folks has the smaller power steering return hose been reshaped? My new one 44412-28160 is a very different shape from my old one, I can make it fit but it will take a different route and it is hard to see how well that will work with the alternator and brushes and whatsnot out of the way at the moment. Any thoughts? Thanks! :cheers:

I found a Previa hose that has the proper bend in it and it can be cut to fit.

It seems to fit fine at the moment but then again there's nothing there to get in the way. I imagine if anything gets cut it is a little at lower end? Can someone confirm please? Thanks. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:
 
Cut out the section that resembles the Cruiser hose...;)

Well, other than the fact that it is rubber not much resembles! :D Still, the entire thing seems to make the reservoir sit level and more or less in the right position. I think I'll leave it like that until the alternator and rad hoses/rad tubes are reinstalled. Thanks for saving me a big bundle on that thing Dan, I did not realize the way the cruiser part was sold for so much!!! :eek:

That is NOT for the reservoir. It is for the hose that fails in between the gear and the cooler tube.
