My new rack is arriving today along with new tie rod ends. I think I may just replace the hoses as well. Seems that folks recommend using OE hoses.

I see on eeuroparts.com an omega brand pressure side hose for $61, the description says Volvo OE. Dealer wants $180 for the part. Any thoughts on using the 'omega' hose.

The return hose seems much simpler except for the fact that I see a banjo type connector on my steering rack but the return hoses I see on-line are simple with just two hose clamps. I'm guessing the return hose just clamps to a banjo/hose barb fitting down at the rack??

Look forward to comments on hoses as well as general rack replacement tips.

nervous about this one
