Pressure Line Hose Assembly

Edelmann 71308 is a power steering pressure line hose assembly built to match OE routing and pressure requirements. It is made for direct replacement use on a wide range of classic Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Cadillac, Pontiac, and International applications.

Key Features

• Matches original hose routing for a precise installation path.
• Built to handle steering-system pressure pulsations and heat.
• Constructed with quality materials to resist premature failure.
• Designed as a pressure line assembly for power steering systems.
• 31-inch hose length for application-specific routing.

Detailed Description

This Edelmann pressure line hose assembly is engineered to follow the original hose trajectory closely, helping it fit the allotted space without unnecessary strain. The design focuses on durability under high pressure and elevated temperatures, which is important in older power steering systems where hose breakdown can lead to contamination and loss of steering performance. Part number 71308 is a fitment-specific solution for vehicles including Chevrolet P10, P20, P30, GMC P1500, P3500, Ford Galaxie, Cadillac DeVille, and International 1010 applications. This part cross-references Gates 354730 and FEL-PRO 35473 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Replacing a leaking or cracked power steering pressure hose.
• Restoring proper hydraulic pressure in the steering system.
• Addressing hose wear caused by heat and pressure cycling.
• Correcting routing issues from an incorrect or damaged line.
• Servicing conventional and hydroboost-equipped steering setups where listed.

Installation Notes

Verify reservoir tube count, pump type, steering gear type, and hydroboost configuration before installation. Fitment varies by vehicle and system layout, including conventional power steering and pump-to-hydroboost applications. Confirm the hose routing matches the original path before tightening connections. Part number 71308 should be matched to the exact application notes shown in the fitment data.

Quality Assurance

Edelmann states that this hose assembly is manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications and is built to provide long service life under steering-system conditions.
