Power steering hoses for the 'camgears' / cortina rack??

[Bobby Shaftoe]

My PS hoses have seen better days and could really do with replacement.

Does anyone know what type and thread the fittings are at the rack end?

I would be interested in the answer to this as I think mine are the same.

Just BSP nipples as I recall. I think the hoses are the standard ones from the SD1. Mine have been looking a bit less than pukka for the last 15 years but there always seems to be something else to fix first... I don't think the 'high pressure' side is at particularly high pressure and the LP side is just a fluid return to the reservoir; the hoses are good for at least 10Bar.

Hi,

don't know if it's useful in the UK, but I went to my local Pirtek dealer and he made me the correct ones for about 80 €.

I've never bought anything from Pirtek that cost less than 80 - and that's pounds!
