The high-pressure hose required “consultation,” and the steering gear box also required “consultation.” In this situation, I was eager to go with an electric conversion, but after consulting, solutions emerged. In the end, I was able to do a complete refresh while keeping the hydraulic system.
- High-pressure hose 53713-st7-z02: I asked a company that handles hydraulic tools for construction work, and they were able to reuse the fittings while replacing the entire hose assembly with new parts
- Low-pressure hoses: Since there are several, I won’t list the part numbers, but genuine parts were available for these. That said, I think stock is limited, so if you need them, get them soon
- Power steering pump ASSY 56110-p72-003: Used rebuilt parts
- Power steering tank comp 53701-sr3-951: Genuine parts available
- Steering gear box ASSY 53601-st7-z01: Even rebuilt parts were out of stock, so it had to be repaired from the original unit. It was removed, sent to a specialist, repaired, and then reinstalled
As for impressions after the repair, the vibration that used to occur during steering operation is now gone, and the feel is extremely smooth. Having no leaks and nothing to worry about is great for peace of mind too.
