So after a drive a couple of weeks ago it the power steering return pipe sprung an impressive leak. Having had a look at the state of the pipe and the high pressure one I decided it was best to replace both at once. Parts ordered and delivered, old pipes removed and new ones installed. All relatively painless apart from the damn brackets that hold the pipes together and link the return to the steering rack. The former was totally rusted solid and the one attaching it to the rack is rusted and the thread are knackered.

I have searched and searched but cant find replacements anywhere. I am probably using the wrong terms as they must be purchasable. Any pointers to a source for them would be gratefully received!

This might be what you need, they have most of the other pipes as well

They all rot eventually - mine went about 4 years ago

Autolink service is great - if you're not sure its the right part , give them a call or drop them an email and they'll sort you out, and they ship out very quickly as well.
