I'm in the process of ordering a whole bunch of parts after dropping the engine. During the process, those terrible power steering line fittings rounded out - the ones on the hard line side are the parts that are bad and they're definitely removable/replaceable but I cannot for the life of me find a part number for them. Anyone have any guidance?

Have you thought about used?.....and cannibalize the part for what you need? Any of these help? I know they are not for a 2002 C4S but I can't think that Porsche would change fittings.

Looking for the two pieces on the left.

the picture you posted looks like the one from an old thread here. I suggest you give Pelican Parts a ring if you can order just the fitting or if it is part of the hose/line. Check out FIG 8 in DIY link below:

holy shat...$175

Yeah.....

I think I may just be buying new lines, since it's the same price and I am pretty sure it includes the fitting!

Also make sure you check sunsetporscheparts.com

They have great price and top notch customer service.

DBJoe996

Yeah. Watch what you bugger up when DIY...been there done that. Loading/unloading chairs in the back scratched leather console cover (not really bad, just annoying, more like a mark on it) - replacement = $850 = not replaced. Gotta love our cars.

^^Leatherique or Leatherworld...about $75

It does appear a new line is the only way. Luckily Sunset, as Ahsai suggested, is a good option for the lowest price.

Ahsai

Yeah, Sunset rocks. I just ordered about $4k worth of parts from them for my engine rebuild.

I'm in the process of removing the engine in my '03 Targa and having a devil of a time to loosen these power steering connectors on the right (upper) side of the engine compartment. Are there special tools or a trick in getting these apart. I can't get wrenches on the hex's due to space...trying to use crow's foot wrenches/extensions/ratchets but not having much luck...any suggestions? Thanks in advance...

Yep some of the soft touch prices are crazy! Left or right upper dash vents... $850 each, drivers side door sill $985...
