I've read on here that some people actually get the used hose repaired. www.luxurymods.com will sell you a new oem toyota/lexus hose for a lot cheaper than $550. They sell it for $360.00 still an expensive part. Its listed under SC-OEM Parts Section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94BLKSC400 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Dont go thru what I did. Check your alternator (If its wet/soaked, replace it) or You'll be standed on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere... Like I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIBBBY Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Check the local junk yards to save money those hoses don't go bad that often but the pumps do, and when the pumps go the fluid leaks right down on to the alternator and for some reason the power steering fluid and the alternator don't play well together... Good luck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
