Dennis, this is what you need. http://www.vanagain.com/shop/power-steering-metal-line-replacement-kit/

The original metal pipes were only Cad plated so no real rust protection. The kit we sell replaces them with high pressure hydraulic hose that will never rust and is easy to install. We developed this kit a long time ago and I have been selling them and installing them for 15 years. Great product!
