    Dodge Grand Caravan is a great vehicle, lots of room & simple to repair! 👍

      No, no any room at all!

    One of the better auto repair videos I've watched. Good filming and explanations on what steps to take and where the parts all. Good job.

    I love your videos I've learned so much from you. You're a great teacher. Thank .. I will say one thing my little brain noticed, that block you put under there for support should be flip the other way so the holes are up and down for maximum support.
    Thank you for the great videos 😊

    Thank you kindly sir and blessings but i must ask if you need the crowsfoot if you just cut or ripped the lines out and leave just enough room over the the new conection for a socket but i guess it only applies if removing still need to reinstall thx again

  • @tal125
    @tal125 Год назад +1

    Any tips for getting on the bolt in the back of the reservoir? The low pressure hose is in the way and as I saw in your video a right pain in the butt to get off.

    • @PistonShack
      @PistonShack  Год назад +2

      You don't need to remove bolt completely, reservoir in the back has slot, just loose the bolt and pull reservoir up.

    I need help changing my power steering pressure hose on my 2006 Chrysler Town & Country. The space is so tight to turn the crows feet off just like in this video but it seems like you have easier access is it because it is a dodge caravan?

    My 2000 caravan 4cyl has non removable metal pressure line. It was mounted first at factory on body bottom, with steering long gear box mounted on top. The metal line leaks at a corner. I put a split rubber hose over crack on tube with double screw clamps to slow down the leak. The 2003 caravan service manual has no reference to replacing pressure power steering line either.

    • @PistonShack
      @PistonShack  2 года назад

      Interesting, I have never heard about it. Is it possible to weld or solder the crack?

    Transmission fluid in the steering reservoir, instead of steering fluid?

    Hiyas! Great Job! I just replaced the rack & pinion on my van. What size are the o'rings for the lines into the rack? Thank you.

    • @PistonShack
      @PistonShack  3 года назад

      Honestly, I don't remember. I would get a kit from local parts store in your situation. Only use green o-rings on PS and AC lines. Cheers!

    The video very helpful going problem you didn't name the sizes of any of the tools the wrench sizes for the high-pressure line I don't know what that size is it would have been more helpful if you would have included the sizes of the ranches that you used but other than that great video

    • @PistonShack
      @PistonShack  Год назад

      Hey Clinton. Sorry about that, I should include sizes( I learned my lesson, Thanks for you feedback.

    How long did this take? My vans been sitting for over a year because my power steering is bad. Won't hold fluid.

      I don't remember exact time, it was a long time ago. Probably, 3-4 hours.

    Did you replace the brackets too or no? If so where did you find them? Also for the pump there’s a corner thing on it that goes to a bigger rubber hose do you know where I can find that part?

    • @PistonShack
      @PistonShack  2 года назад +1

      I didn't do any brackets. Well, the best place to find Caravan parts is local junk yard. Bzw, how is your repair?
