Subject:GoWesty power steering hoses

I just had a bunch of work done on my 1991 Volkswagen Vanagon GL
Campmobile, including power steering repairs.  The shop I use will install
customer supplied parts.  So, I ordered a lot of parts from our online
vendors.  Among those parts were power steering hoses described by GoWesty
as if they were the best thing since ice cream was invented.

The tech and the owner of the shop both looked at the hoses and said "No
way, you don't want to use these."  They had new hoses made up at a local
shop called, "House of Hose."  The shop owner showed me the differences
between the GoWesty hoses and the custom built ones.  Connections in
particular were clearly better, but the hose itself was much better
quality, also.  Just letting you know my experience.

My guys were ok with and used all the other parts I supplied.
