Detailed Description

This Sunsong power steering return line hose assembly is built to restore the return path between the steering gear and cooler on Ford Super Duty trucks. The hose is manufactured to exact-fit specifications and uses high-grade steel tubing with zinc electroplating for added resistance to corrosion from humidity, road salt, water, and grime.

This part cross-references Dorman - HELP 81072 and Gates 352692 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Power steering fluid return leaks
• Cracked or deteriorated return hose material
• Corrosion on exposed steering line tubing
• Incorrect hose length or routing on replacement repairs
• Steering fluid loss from worn fittings or line damage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses gear-to-cooler routing before installation. Confirm the 16 mm male end connection and overall hose length match the original line, and inspect related brackets, grommets, heat shields, bushings, and sleeves on the vehicle if replacement is needed during service. Proper routing helps prevent contact with hot or moving components.

The zinc-coated steel tubing and precision-fit construction are intended to support long-term corrosion resistance and reliable replacement performance on Ford F-250 Super Duty and Ford F-350 Super Duty applications.
