Power steering hose rebuild

OEM lines have an internal "damper".
That's the fat hard section of the pressure line.
Rebuilt lines don't have this unless you cut the old
line and force the "damper" back in the new line.

Hi Konstantin:

Are you sure the groaning is caused by the hoses and not just your rack
needing a bit of a lubing? Apparently when your rack sliders get dry
they groan and need a bit of white grease. Slide the boot back a bit
from both ends and put a bit of grease on the internal part of the tube
where the nylon slider makes contact.

Cheers
George
