Hi guys, my 1996 Ranger is getting me crazy...
I searched the forum but I did not find, so I ask:
I'm trying to solve many problems, now it's the steering leaks time:
The leaks is at the steering hose, the one that start just on the side of the reserve oil: It's definitely the O-Ring inside the nut, so I need to replace the hose, BUT:
I'm in Dominican Republic and I bought this truck used: the hose was broken leaking very much, so I brought to a car repairer and they repaired the hose changing the rubber part.
In the metal part of the hose, near the steering gear, there was a soldered sensor socket, with a sensor in it, I don't know which sensor is this.
Now I want to buy a completely new hose (because is still leaking from the inside nut Oring ) and I have 2 problems:
1) I don't see any sensor "socket" in the spare hose I should buy...
2) There are 2 different hose, I don't know which one I should buy because mine is not original...
one is this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Powercraft-71878-Power-Steering-Pressure-Hose-NEW-/280793944769?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make:Ford|Model:Ranger|Year:1996&vxp=mtr&hash=item41609f92c1#ht_500wt_1024
and here is the othe one:

I need the one which connect on the side of the oil reservoil... and... I don't see any sensor socket solderet to both...
If possible, help me please.
Thanks a lot.
