Default Need video tutorial on power steering pump hose removal for an 89.

I have a 1989 Corvette with the L98 engine in it. I have looked everywhere for a video showing step-by-step how to remove and replace the hoses from my power steering pump. Any help with finding a video like this or if someone could walk me through it I would really appreciate it. Thanks! Tammy {Vetdrem}

I think the possibility of finding a video like that is really small.

Projects like this are too simple to warrant a video. Remove bad/old/ugly/worn part and replace with new part.

You will need flare nut wrenches. I recollect is that the size at the top of the hose is different than the one at the bottom. Since you should have a new hose in hand you can use that to determine what wrench sizes you need.

What I found when I replaced mine is that I could not get the wrench to turn when I got it on the steering rack end of the hose (too much interference). I bent the pipe back and forth until it broke off (I didn't want to cut it with a hack saw and get metal bits inside the system). Then I used a 6 point socket to get the flare nut out
