88 New Yorker steering rack hoses

    The metal fluid tubes that connect one end of the rack to the other end
    of the rack have rusted out and sprung a leak (thanks New York State
    road salt crews)

    These are not the hoses going to the power steering pump.
    I don't see parts listings for these tubes.
    You have to either buy an entire rack or make them yourself.

    Anyone know a source for these tubes or dimensions and specs ?
    I figure most of the boneyard stuff must be in bad shape as well.


    Thanks

    I needed some brake hoses that were not stocked a few years ago. The
    parts house told me where to call and order them made. I am sure your
    parts house knows where to get custom tubes made. A Google search will
    probably find them.

    you will find that those steel tubes are only available with the rack and i
    just had to make one for a windstar today using the original flair nuts
    since thiose are metric and not many parts stores carry them and i have
    even tried hardware stores that are stocked second to none
    the other option is get them from a salvage yard but they usually make you
    buy the rack
