I see that I can easily get a pressure hose for a 69/70 but not 68 (no one seems to carry it -- tried several Buick sites etc). I know I can have it made locally but would rather get an off the shelf Gates (or similar) hose as I wouldn't mind getting all new fittings etc and the price will be less. Does anyone really know what's different? I might just buy the 69 hose and see if it fits but I thought someone might have some experience? -- thanks
I found and Edelman brand on Rock Auto. With that part number in hand, my local parts supplier was able to get the same hose for a couple bucks less and it fit fine. I just looked on Rock Auto again and all they list is this one: http://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/...08,steering,power+steering+pressure+hose,7320 Maybe you can have somebody cross reference that one into something else. If I can find my paperwork, I will repost the part number. Below are some other options from Ebay. I think I got my fully assembled return line through Ebay via a Pep Boys closeout: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...wildcat+power+steering+pressure+hose&_sacat=0 Good Luck! Al
