PS Hose Kit 82-Present GM Gear or R&P

The PS Hose Kit 82-Present GM Gear or R&P from Detroit Speed Engineering is a critical component for any serious enthusiast working with vintage and modern GM power steering systems. Whether you're restoring a classic square-body Chevy, modernizing a second-gen Camaro, or upgrading a truck from 1982 onward, this hose kit addresses a common pain point: original equipment power steering hoses deteriorate, crack, and leak over time, compromising steering response and reliability. Detroit Speed Engineering engineered this solution specifically for GM gear box and rack-and-pinion steering configurations, ensuring precise fitment without guesswork or expensive custom fabrication.

This hose kit delivers OEM-equivalent or superior quality replacement hose assemblies with factory-correct routing and connection points. The hoses are constructed to handle full system pressure while resisting degradation from fluid exposure, heat cycling, and road vibration—all critical factors that cause stock hoses to fail. By replacing worn original hoses with this purpose-built kit, you restore proper hydraulic integrity to your steering system, eliminating issues like sluggish response, noise at full lock, or fluid seepage that affects performance and safety. The kit's engineered design means no modification to frame brackets or steering components is required for most applications.

This kit is ideal for restoration shops, performance builders, and DIY enthusiasts maintaining 1982-present GM vehicles with either traditional recirculating-ball gear boxes or modern rack-and-pinion setups. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable working with steering systems—drain the system, disconnect the old hoses at both the pump and gear/rack, and route the new assembly following factory hard-line paths. The compact 12 x 2 x 18-inch package ships efficiently, and at 1.61 pounds, it's light enough to integrate seamlessly during a broader steering or suspension refresh without adding unnecessary weight.
