Can't find a HP PS Hose for my Blazer
« on: December 04, 2009, 05:09:54 pm »
My 81 has a serp set-up, so does my 72, but I can't find
the line anywhere? Nothing I find looks like what I have?
Anybody have any ideas on what I can do? Thank you  :'(

81 never came with serp set-up. I have spent hours
at numerous stores trying their patience and nothing.

I can't find anything that looks like what I have on it.

*A custom one made from Summit is around $70.00

Can you post a pic or Two of the engine, power steering pump, ect.? Maybe someone can Identify it. Is this a factory looking set-up on some year vehicle or A/M stuff? Lorne

Aftermarket GM serp set-up on my 72 Blazer.

PS box fittings are the same on as on my 81.

Pump end we think is a 14mm x 1.5 w/ o-ring

Box end should be a 5/8-18 w/ out an o-ring

Wowsers, you guys are quick on the fly using serches  :o

Do you think I can bend that straight end w/ out kinking it?

Nobody in my town has it for me to even test fit this  >:(

I found one, but it's o-ring on both ends, can it be modified?

my 79 had the flange type and my 86 has the o ring type. i pulled the engine out of my 86 to put in my 79 ran into that problem then i just switch PS pumps and that was done. might be easer to go to the junk yard and grab a newer style

Take the fitting out of a newer pump that takes the 0-ring type and put it in yours.  I have done it many times.

I am talking about the hp fitting on the pump.  I think it takes a 1 inch wrench.  I can take pics tomorrow if you need them, I know I have pumps in my shed.
