Hi guys can anybody tell me what's the pipe called on the steering gearbox it sits at the top it's a right angle pipe with a big nut and thers a hose attached to it going to the power steering pump it seems to be leaking at the nut on the gearbox I have tried to tighten it with no effect there nothing in my manual to tell me what the pipes called 1987 dodge w150 pick up ps I think it maybe a pressure pipe:BangHead:
 
If I had periods and commas to work with, I could probably figure out what you're describing. Some capitalization thrown in doesn't cost extra either.
Textspeak shouldn't be used when asking for technical assistance.

IOM :D

Yes looked at my post disgusting spelling of the English language . I haven't been to school for over 50 yrs . And not wearing my glasses doesent help "lol" Back to my post there is a small right angle pipe at the top of the steering box . With a nut which is leaking . And that in turn is connected to the power steering pump via a rubber hose . I just need to know what the angle pipe is called so I can order one as it doesent show up on my manual
 
It's a return hose. If it's held on by clamps. The other one screws into both the pump and gear box that's your pressure hose.
I just had a look it's not a seperate angle pipe as I thought its one sealed rubber hose with metal pipes at both ends secured to the gear box by a nut and to the pump by another nut the second pipe next to that with the rubber hose is connected by jubilee clips so I think your right that's the pressure hose
 
Yep. It gets replaced as an assembly.
Where is the best place to get parts in the usa. I am currently using a English supplier and he is terrible he ordered some parts for me 3months ago took my money and I still haven't got them . Keeps coming up with excuses I may have been conned or is that how it goes with parts in the usa I don't know .

It's your phone doing it. It remembers the orientation of the phone when you took the camera and imprints to the picture.

Open the pic with windows picture viewer or paint or something and save it in the correct orientation .. on your computer .. not an apple product.
