[s-cars] Power steering hose bueller

[Gmail]

You don't specify which high pressure hose- there are 2. There's one from the pump to the bomb, and another from the pump to the rack. Either can be rebuilt by any hydraulic shop, however the pump to rack hose has a built-in restrictor that should be transferred over to the new hose to ensure quiet operation. Spokane House of Hose has a very good reputation and can do same-day turnaround if you can't find someone local.
