Re: [Chevelle-list] Power Steering Box

[Crazy Rusty]

I am using a later box and that definitely seems to be the issue.  Instead of an adapter, can’t I just buy the fittings and the 6” hard line?  I thought that would be easier but then again, I can’t seem to find them anywhere J   - JB   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Schaefer Sent: Thursday, August 10, 2006 10:46 PM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Power Steering Box   OOps   Early P/S boxes did not have o-rings.   Later ones did.  The early hoses have a flare fitting on the end that mates to a flare in the box coupling.     IF you are using a later box that used o-rings, you can buy adapters that allow the use of early non o-ring hoses.   On 8/11/06, Rick Schaefer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: E   On 8/10/06, Mike Holleman <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: Most of the fittings in PS boxes use o'rings.
