The steel tubes that supply power steering fluid from one side of the rack to the other side of the rack are rusting out. Local sources are willing to sell me a complete rebuilt rack but not just the steel tubes. Anyone know an online source for these parts or maybe the actual tube size ?
88 Chrysler New Yorker. Thank New York State for the road salt.Well with 96 inches of snow in some parts of upstate NY this year I would expect them to use something on to roads to make them passable. Your car made it 19 years. Maybe you should complain to chrysler for not using stainless steel.

I just looked this up again for him. Guess he did not see it.

Are these standard double flared ends? Remove the tubes, take to your FLAPS, buy some brake line the same size/length. Bend to match (you'll need to buy a tubing bender for this.) Et voila, done.
If you want a replacement that won't rust out, send your old parts off to Classic Tube and have them make you some new ones in stainless. Or just call 'em up; they might already have a pattern, or can sell you some bulk tube and fittings if you have your own flaring tools.
good luck,
nate
