Detailed Description

This Sunsong power steering return line hose assembly is made to restore the return path between the hydroboost unit and pump on select Dodge Ram trucks. The hose is precision engineered for exact fitment and uses high-grade steel tubing with zinc electroplating for corrosion and rust resistance in harsh conditions such as humidity, road salt, water, and grime. Sunsong 3402517 is specified for 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 3500 applications, making it a direct replacement choice for Ram steering service work.

The assembly is designed to meet original equipment performance standards and includes the required wearable components as needed to return the system to original condition. This part cross-references Gates 363720 and Dayco 80423 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Power steering fluid leaks at the return line
• Cracked, hardened, or deteriorated hose material
• Corrosion on exposed steering line tubing
• Steering fluid loss that can lead to noisy operation
• Hydroboost-to-pump return line replacement on Ram trucks

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the hydroboost-to-pump routing before installation and match the 3/8 in. ID hose ends to the vehicle connection points. Inspect surrounding brackets, grommets, heat shields, bushings, and sleeves during service so the replacement line seats correctly and follows the original routing on the Dodge Ram 2500 or Ram 3500.

Quality Assurance

Sunsong manufactures this return hose assembly to exceed original equipment performance standards for return-side steering service. The zinc-coated steel tubing and precision-engineered fit support corrosion resistance and consistent replacement quality for 1998-2002 Dodge Ram steering repairs.
