Power Steering - Return Hose Fitting

[boxhead]

I would recomend fitting a cooler in line Gregg, I have no experience regarding the power steering or cooler in Cobra.
But after working with GMH from 1992 until 2007, they need the cooling.
I saw a mates VT SS after some "spirited" driving, it melted all the plastic clips on the power steering lines (and that was with the factory cooler)

thanks Boxhead. will check in to this with Ian at CR to see what he has found with the Cobra i.e. being a lighter car etc.

Gregg,

Weight will not have much to do with it, it will be more about how you drive and if you are going to do a bit of racing.

I have a cooler and a big custom reservoir and still run pretty hot in normal driving.

Thanks Ben for the advice.

Where did you get you cooler from?

Also the biggest problem I have at present is finding the fitting from the Power Steering Output to the cooler.

Tenrocca mentioned today its a 18mm 1.5 fitting. I am looking for this fitting to fit my reservoir hose to etc (temporary only).

I have struggled to find any suppliers on the internet today.

I was thinking of connecting without the cooler temporarily so I could start my Engine this weekend, but its looking a bit shaky at the moment.
