Power steering u bend pipe

[mattgtd]

Hi guys, noticed a small leak on the garage floor, looked closer and it appears to be the power steering fluid from that dodgy looking u bend with the jubilee clips on - checked those and they are tight.
I have read a few old posts mentioning there are modified / upgraded pipes available, does anybody have any info where from? Alternatively any ideas from people that have solved the leaks in other ways, I've read it's a common problem.
Cheers.

This is the one right? The hose on the right of the picture, only £19 if so which will be a result.

Its the one on the right you want - reservoir to pump

Although I would replace them all if you have the chance. They are getting on a bit now and can start to deteriorate internally

Thanks mate, I was thinking the same to be honest, not the cheapest job, but 1 that I guess you'll only have to do once hey. Think I'll order these tomorrow.

Those are the John Zubak hoses, I fitted them on recommendation last year and have never had an issue since, completely bone dry joints
