Detailed Product Description

The Sunsong 3402022 power steering pressure line hose assembly is engineered to meet the hydraulic requirements of power steering systems in Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles, specifically the Taurus, Continental, and Sable models. The hose is made from chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM), a material known for its resistance to heat, oil, and abrasion, which helps maintain system integrity under demanding conditions.

This assembly features male inverted flare fittings on both ends—5/8 inch on one end and 16 mm on the other—ensuring compatibility with factory power steering components. The 52-inch length provides a precise fit without the need for modifications. The absence of a bracket or power steering switch port simplifies installation and reduces potential failure points.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Replacement of worn or leaking power steering pressure hoses in Ford Taurus, Lincoln Continental, and Mercury Sable
• Eliminates fluid leaks that cause steering difficulty or noise
• Prevents pressure loss in the power steering system for consistent steering response
• Addresses hose deterioration due to heat and chemical exposure
• Restores proper hydraulic fluid flow to the power steering pump and rack

Installation Notes and Tips

• Ensure the vehicle is properly supported and the power steering system is depressurized before removal
• Verify fitting sizes (5/8 inch and 16 mm male inverted flare) match existing components
• Inspect related components such as clamps and brackets for wear during installation
• Use appropriate torque specifications to avoid overtightening fittings
• Bleed the power steering system after installation to remove air and ensure proper function
