Built for Pressure, Corrosion Resistance, and Fit
This Sunsong power steering pressure line hose assembly is designed around the original routing and connection style used on hydroboost-equipped vehicles. The steel tubing is electroplated with zinc to help resist rust and corrosion from humidity, road salt, water, and grime, while the hose assembly is precision engineered for exact fitment. Sunsong 3401982 also undergoes high-pressure quality testing before it leaves the factory to support trouble-free installation and operation.
