Bernie, Sorry don't know what the part numbers are, but have you thought of getting replacement hoses made up by a hose provider - probably a fraction of the price of genuine. (I did this on an old Pajero I still have) Murray

Bernie, if you do get non-Toyota hoses can you advise if you get any noise/vibration after fitting please?
I fitted non-genuine hoses and I get a bit of noise from the power steering. My mechanic diagnosed it as being caused by not having the real thing. I'd be interested to see if others have the same problem or whether it's something else.

Bernie the hoses you want are on the low pressure side and you will get no noise or vibration. the other hoses are high pressure and i would go genuine (its all to do with the p/s pulses) non gen can cause noise

Well I went to Repco and sourced some hose to match and it seems to be working fine. It turned out that the Manager of the Repco store that I went to, used to work for me a few years back and so I got a decent discount to boot. So thanks for the advice guys as It saved me a packet.
