Edelmann 80598 Power Steering Pressure Line Hose Assembly - Tube - From Pump

OE-Style Power Steering Pressure Line

The Edelmann Pressure Line Assembly 80598 is a power steering pressure line hose assembly built for direct replacement on select Ford and Lincoln vehicles. It is shaped to follow the original hose routing and uses materials selected to handle steering-system pressure pulsations and heat.

Compatible with 2000-2006 Lincoln LS and 2002-2005 Ford Thunderbird, this pressure line assembly supports a precise underhood fit where the hose runs from the pump.

Key Features

• Hose length: 14.75 in.
• Built to match OE routing for a clean installation path
• Constructed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications
• Designed for pressure and return hose service in steering systems
• Engineered to resist heat, pressure pulsation, and fluid contamination
• Direct replacement for the pressure line assembly application

Detailed Description

Edelmann Pressure Line Assembly 80598 is part of the Pressure Line Assembly product line, focused on OE-style steering hose replacement. The hose is formed to duplicate the factory trajectory so it routes correctly in the available space and aligns with the original power steering layout. This helps maintain proper hose positioning on applications such as the Lincoln LS and Ford Thunderbird, where the line runs from the pump.

This part cross-references Gates 352161 for the same application. The Edelmann 80598 pressure line hose assembly is a practical choice for replacing a worn, leaking, or heat-aged steering hose while preserving factory-style routing and fit.

What It Helps Fix

• Power steering fluid leaks at the pressure line
• Hose cracking from heat exposure
• Loss of steering assist caused by line failure
• Noise or pulsation related to restricted or damaged hose routing
• Contamination concerns from deteriorated hose material

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the vehicle is a 2000-2006 Lincoln LS or 2002-2005 Ford Thunderbird with the tube-from-pump configuration.
• Confirm hose routing before installation to match the original path.
• Inspect related steering components, fittings, and fluid condition before completing the repair.
• Use clean power steering fluid and bleed the system according to the vehicle service procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

Edelmann designs this pressure line assembly to match or exceed OE specifications and to withstand the pressure and heat commonly found in steering systems. The construction is intended to support long service life and reduce the risk of premature hose breakdown.
