rebuilding a power steering hose

[Bernie Benz]

Phil,

Your statement, 'are barely  "cost-effective",IMHO' sounds to be the
understatement of the New Year, so far anyway.  That return hose requires no
more than a 2' piece of fuel or water hose and two hose clamps.  Maybe $5 or
$6, if not in your scrap box.
