CHEAP Power steering coolers ready for the taking!
I have a steel power steering cooler in my 70 Charger and have been looking for spares. Mine came from a mid 80s M body police car. Diplomats and Gran Fury models had them.
Mine is attached to a Saginaw power steering pump.
These donor cars are harder to find than they were in the early 2000s when I found mine.
Aftermarket coolers are available but if you’re one that likes to save a few bucks and repurpose things, here is a solution.
Dodge/Plymouth Neons, PT cruisers and Mopar minivans!
Here is one I pulled from a Neon:
These are aluminum. The lines are 1/2” but they are swedged down at the ends. The lines are a little weird but they could be shortened. I looked further at other cars and found that these models are even better:
Their design is better since the nipples are close to the body of the cooler.
They are really easy to reach, too.
There are two 9mm bolts to remove then just cut the hoses. One minute if you are slow.
CHEAP....How about NINE dollars each?
