Detailed Product Description

This Sunsong power steering pressure line hose assembly (part number 3401681) is engineered to meet the specifications required by Ford heavy-duty trucks such as the Excursion, F-250 Super Duty, and F-350 Super Duty. The hose is made from chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM), a material known for its excellent resistance to heat, oil, and abrasion, which is critical for maintaining hydraulic fluid integrity under high pressure.

The assembly features male o-ring fittings on both ends, with a 1/2 inch fitting on one end and a 16 mm fitting on the other, ensuring a secure and leak-free connection within the power steering system. At 38.1 inches (967 mm) in length, this hose assembly is designed to fit precisely without the need for modifications. The absence of a bracket and power steering switch port simplifies installation and reduces potential failure points.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement of worn or leaking power steering pressure lines in Ford Excursion, F-250 Super Duty, and F-350 Super Duty
• Resolving power steering fluid leaks that cause steering difficulty or noise
• Addressing hose degradation due to heat and pressure exposure
• Eliminating pressure loss that results in poor steering response
• Preventing contamination of the power steering system from damaged hoses

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure the vehicle is safely supported and the steering system is depressurized before installation
• Verify the hose length and fitting sizes (1/2 inch and 16 mm male o-ring) match the original equipment
