misterp Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Take the original hose off, and go to a shop that does hydraulic hose repair - I am pretty sure all NAPAs can do this, if not they will know who local to you can. Tell the hydraulic hose repair dude that you want to replace the existing rubber line with new one, they can do that and it will only cost $40-60 tops. Mr. P.

nikon1999 Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Thanks ill sure check into it sounds alot better than replacing with the same old stuff that will leak again anyway I've had to replace mine twice now. I'm rather anal about leaks under my truck and hate any.. I went with ac delco's for a total of $160 bucks the first time around, and they leaked after 20k miles. This time i went with aftermarket dorman for $58. Did all labor myself, really not that difficult. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise you cannot get the lines between the block and diff housing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
