Power Steering "Transfer Line" NEW SUPPLIER SOURCE?
Hi, I am a new owner of a 2004 F-150 FX4. Bought the truck with a leaking power steering and I have isolated the root cause of the leak. It is coming from the "transfer line" attached to the center of the rack. The top portion has simply rotted through. I have searched the forum and google for about a week and only found one thread where someone actually asked about replacing the hard line on the rack. Unfortunately, no one chimed in with a part source and all my searches only come up with a HP line or Return line....no hard transfer line leading from the rack to the gear box.
I hope someone can provide me with insight and look forward to contributing to this forum and being a new proud F-150 owner.

Apparently this is not a double flare end. Not sure what they call this type of flare. Anyone know? Looks like a compressed bubble flare. Nobody offers this line anywhere. Going to see what I can do to convert the rack to a more standardized flare.

Did some research, couldn't find anyone who sold that line. All I found was the entire rack, and the lines for the pump. Maybe see if you could grab it from a junkyard rack?

Cardone make one of the two transfer lines. The other is not offered at all from anyone....baffling. Somewhere out there someone is making these, putting them on racks, but not offering them separately.
