Compare the hose length, end sizes, and routing to the original part before removal. Inspect adjacent pipes, clamps, and cooler connections for wear or corrosion so the new hose seals properly after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSunsong states that its return hoses exceed original equipment performance standards for low-pressure, high-temperature service. The tubing is manufactured from high-grade steel with a zinc electroplated coating to improve resistance to corrosion, rust, humidity, road salt, water, and grime.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sunsong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52845430472885,"sku":"FTTD-3405257","price":25.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/1442\/1173\/files\/S5_3405257_FRO.jpg?v=1784789658","url":"https:\/\/www.partcatalog.com\/products\/sunsong-3405257-power-steering-return-line-hose-assembly-pipe-to-cooler","provider":"PartCatalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
