A: The Earls Power Steering Hose Kit includes pre-assembled high-pressure hoses, AN fittings, and necessary hardware for a complete installation. It’s designed to replace factory hoses for improved durability and performance. The kit is compatible with most aftermarket steering systems.
A: Ensure fittings are clean and properly aligned before tightening to avoid leaks. Use a wrench to secure the hose ends without over-torquing. Always follow the manufacturer’s torque specifications for optimal performance.
A: Earls hoses are designed for aftermarket and custom applications but may work with OEM systems depending on fitting compatibility. Check specifications to confirm thread size and pressure ratings. Custom configurations may require adapter fittings.
A: Earls hoses use aerospace-quality materials like Teflon® liners and braided stainless steel covers for extreme heat and pressure resistance. They resist abrasion and degradation better than rubber OEM hoses. Ideal for high-performance or racing applications.
A: Earls products are available through authorized retailers, automotive performance shops, and online marketplaces like Summit Racing or JEGS. Verify seller authenticity to ensure genuine parts. Check the official Earls website for a distributor list.
