Detailed Description

This Sunsong power steering pressure line hose assembly, part number 3401697, is engineered for direct replacement on older Chrysler and Dodge steering systems. It is built to restore the pressure side of the hydraulic steering circuit with exact-fit dimensions and application-specific end fittings. The hose is intended for vehicles that use the listed power steering pump and air pump configurations, including Chrysler New Yorker, Newport, Town & Country, and Dodge Charger, Monaco, Dart, Challenger, Aspen, and Magnum.

The steel tubing is zinc-coated to help resist rust and corrosion from humidity, road salt, water, and grime. With a 1,500 psi working pressure rating and 8,700 psi burst rating, Sunsong 3401697 is built for demanding steering-system service. This part cross-references Edelmann 70351 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Power steering fluid leaks from a worn pressure hose
• Hard or inconsistent steering assist caused by pressure loss
• Cracked, corroded, or fatigued hose tubing
• Steering noise related to restricted or damaged pressure lines
• Fitment issues from an incorrect hose length or fitting style

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the end fittings before installation: 5/8 in. male inverted flare on one end and 1/2 in. male O-ring on the other. Confirm the vehicle’s steering pump and air pump configuration against the listed fitment, since some applications are specific to Saginaw or Chrysler power steering pump setups. Inspect mating surfaces, flush contaminated fluid if needed, and replace any damaged seals or related steering components during service.

Quality Assurance

Each hose is pressure-tested at the factory before it leaves production. Sunsong states that this hose assembly is engineered to exceed original equipment performance standards for pressure capacity and durability.
