Hey all,

Ive been looking around like crazy but having no luck finding a hose from the power steering pump.

Now from my reservoir there are two a small one and the thicker one.

The small ones you can get replaced from autobarn/repco and them however the big one I cant find anywhere.

Nissan dealerships cant help out either so im guessing it has to be sourced from Jap or go to a hose manufacturer or something.

Anybody had theirs replaced??

Pic attached is the hose i was talking about taken from "Part Number" thread.

Thanks in advance

ah cheers for the replies.

Kudos probably wont have it but ill give it a shot.

amayama.com under "49719: tube assembly, power steering" have it listed for $168USD + delivery, but no pictures so I cant be 100%

I will drop by enzed and have a look for a matching part - when I have confirmed it and replaced it ill post the results. All else fails ill order through amayama.

They won't have a matching part - they will make up a suitable hose.

Yea Kiwi,

I didnt have a chance to do it this weekend because of all the rain, but this Saturday coming up I will ask them to make the hose and give me the specifics. Upon the results I will post them here so others can know exactly what to get.

Well I gave them a call and they said they dont have those parts......anywhoo what i did do is a total flush and cleaned the hose thorough and put it back in.

After testing for leaks there wasn't any so ill leave it sitting for a bit and see what happens - could be that the previous owner didnt put the clamp on properly.

Either way ill report once its back in.

Out of curiosity which NIssan place did you call?

im from SA, I had part numbers which I found on the forums
went to my local Nissan dealership (lakeside Nissan) paid a deposit, they ordered the parts in. from melb I reckon
had them in a few days

reckon I paid about $150 odd for both hoses. bit pricey for hoses

Update:

Turns out my hose wasn't split it was damp due to the top clip not being on properly. So as such there was no need to replace it.

However would be good if anybody can advise the part number of that hose as I see some SAU members need it as well. Ill keep on searching and post the results if I find anything.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
