Installation Notes and Tips

This is a cut-to-fit return line assembly, so final hose length should be matched to the vehicle’s routing before installation. Confirm the steering system configuration, reservoir return tube setup, and any application notes such as flared fitting, cooler use, or conventional system requirements. Fitment includes vehicles such as 1979 Chevrolet Malibu, 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix, and 1970-1972 Chevrolet Blazer with configuration-specific notes, so verify the exact application before trimming the hose.
