So my Power Steering Pump has been leaking... or the hoses, not sure which one but Lexus told me the pump..

I ordered in a Refurbished pump, and then was reading and realized I should change the High Pressure Hose at the same time....

I called Lexus this morning, and they told me the part is the Hose and some other tubes to connect it for a total of 620 dollars?

They told me they do not offer the hose separately?


Is there more parts I need with this hose, because 620 dollars seems extreme when I was thinking more like 120 dollars..

I need to do this pump install today before I ruin my alternator so I'm in a panic at this point.


Do I only need One Hose, One Power Steering Pump, and Dexron 3 Power Steering fluid to do this full change?


Thanks for the help... because this has set me back now..

Bumping.. only because I have about 3 hours to get this part now...

And reading on here, I was prepared for about 120 dollars :/

Also found this online:

Is that sufficient for a new power steering pump install..

Thanks

Don't buy the hose from Stealus , there are plenty of aftermarket places that stock the hose or you could go to a hydraulic hose place with your line and they will replace the rubber bits .
Don't forget to replace the return line bits as well .
Oh yes it would probably be a good idea to remove the solenoid on the rack and clean the filter screen out as well .

Well... today I was trying to test my alternator and I turned the A/C Full and the Music loud with full base... and my headlights on.. noticed the green light on the headlight MINORLY dimmed at times... so now I'm worried and I cant get the work done until the weekend... :/

Go to a hydraulic store , there is one on Dixie north of 401 on the right side , i can't remember the name of it but they will rebuild any hydraulic hoses in any material from rubber to stainless steel.
