[s-cars] Spokane HOH power steering hose woes

[Mike Claire]

Anybody besides me ever use House of Hose to rebuilt their power steering
hose?  I'm talking about the one that runs from the hydraulic pump to the
rack.  Not the J-hose.  I don't see anything in the archives about an S4/S6
owner doing this yet.

I got mine back (looked great) and now it shudders real bad when I turn the
wheel with the car stopped or moving slowly.  And it whines.  I talked to
Jay about it and he said there was some kind of lining inside the original
hose that was worn so he couldn't reuse it.  He didn't think it would matter
at the time.  So upon hearing my story he send me a new swivel connector
with a restrictor to make it the same inside diameter as the original.  I
installed it - no joy.

So I'm asking - anybody ever have success with a HOH rebuilt PS hose?  Any
ideas?
