HOW TO: SC300 High Pressure Power Steering Hose

Does anyone know if a 97 SC300 power steering pressure hose would fit on a 92 SC300? I found the 97 hose for $35 no leaks but I can't find out if it will fit. A brand new hose for 92 is outrageous, 300-500 online and at Autozone. Any help is appreciated.

Hey guys, every time i have to bust a maneuver in downtown my steering starts skipping like crazy now. I have just replaced the pump with a brand new OEM one. For the hoses i kind of wanted to try the supra ones but would they fit my 99? Also i plan on finding a shop here in miami to do the hosework. Would you guys suggest ordering the washers too?

2. The supra line will work on a SC300, but it deletes the lower sensor and requires additional washers.
3. I ordered all new washers as a precaution when I changed my steering system. The old ones probably would have worked, but the cost was negligible compared to the entire project that I bought everything new. I would have been more pissed off at myself if I ended up having to pull everything off again because I cheaped out on a washer.

[QUOTE=Blkexcoupe;10125447]It should fit, but I'm not sure if the older model has the same sensors as the 97 model has. You could easily cap them off with the right size bolt and a crush washer if your car doesn't have it.
How do I tell if the sensors are not the same after install or will it not fit if not the same? Heres a pic of the 92 vs 97. The 92 seems to have a longer middle at the U shaped curve will that make a difference?

I don't think the difference in the U shape will make a difference.

1. Sounds like you still have air in the steering rack if you recently replaced the pump and its skipping.
2. The supra line will work on a SC300, but it deletes the lower sensor and requires additional washers.
3. I ordered all new washers as a precaution when I changed my steering system.

I tilted the wheel from right to left a good ten times before putting the cap on while the car was Slightly on the lift. Maybe it wasnt high enough? but yea it skips when used super frequently like parallel parking etc. I did throw the new pump on and re used the same dirty OEM ones and poured literally half a bottle of T-4 down it and havent looked back. The hoses Im still looking for a shop here in the city that can do it. Ordered the washers, and i would roll with the supra line But id be scared of a CEL or some weird repercussion because of the missing sensors.
