What It Helps Address

• Leaking or cracked power steering return hose

• Wear from heat, pressure pulsation, and underhood exposure

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible with 2008 Ford Focus, gear to cooler, Aug. 31, 2008 & older; 2007 Ford Focus, gear to cooler; and 2006 Ford Focus, gear to cooler, Aug. 14, 2006 & newer. Verify the vehicle build date and routing before installation. Moderate installation difficulty is expected, so inspect adjacent steering components, hose clamps, and fluid condition during service. Confirm the line follows the original OE path to avoid contact with nearby components.
