Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Sunsong 3401583 power steering pressure line hose assembly, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and the power steering system is depressurized. Verify the hose length and fitting sizes match the original equipment. Use proper flare nut wrenches to avoid damaging the male inverted flare fittings.
