Detailed Product Description

This Sunsong power steering pressure line hose assembly (part number 3403690) is engineered to meet the hydraulic requirements of power steering systems in select Dodge and Jeep vehicles. The hose features a length of 76.2 inches (1935 mm), providing an exact fit for the routing path in Dodge Caliber, Jeep Compass, and Jeep Patriot models. Both ends of the hose are equipped with male o-ring fittings—16 mm on one end and 18 mm on the other—ensuring secure, leak-resistant connections to the steering pump and rack.

Constructed from chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM), the hose material offers resistance to heat, pressure, and fluid degradation, which is critical for maintaining steering system integrity. The absence of a bracket and power steering switch port simplifies installation and reduces potential failure points.
