Power Steering Pump Bracket
Included in the FR1610 kit is a ½” feed line that connects from the remote reservoir to the power steering pump. This is
attached using the 2 stainless steel hose clamps. The 3/8” Double Crimped Pressure Line will attach the pressure port of
the powersteering pump and to the pressure side of your steering gear. AN fittings with o-rings are included to complete
the installation. The single crimped 3/8” line is used for the return line from the steering gear to the reservoir. This will
attach to the steering gear to the reservoir using a AN Fitting and the ¼”NPT barbed fitting with a stainless steel hose
clamp. Custom length hose kits can be ordered from Flaming River by providing a drawing with dimensions.
When cutting the stainless steel hose it is easier to use a chop saw or cut off wheel. Wrap the hose in black electrical tape
and cutting through the tape to help avoid fraying. You may need to use a side cutter to trim any frayed stainless steel
line. The lines can be installed to the 90 degree fittings loose until to ensure proper line routing. To tighten, hold the line
itself and tighten the fittings to 10-12 ft lbs.
Note: Over crimping or kinking the line my cause damage
to the Teflon liner and voids warranty.
