Default Power steering hose suppliers?

I am going to order a power steering hose kit for my 75 and was wondering if all the vendors sell the same hoses or does someone have better quality? I checked the archives and someone had mentioned in the past that the hoses from Zip were bent differently than the originals. Any advice?

some vendors use the same as others and some have lines made up for them at local hose and hydralic stores.

I thinkn p/s hoses are something that can be best bought cheaply at the local auto parts store. I can't see why they would have to be ordered and pay extra for delivery from a Vette supplier.

:iagree: :iagree: I bought a complete set from one of the vendors and I went to put them on on a saturday and 2 of them did not fit. I called advance auto parts and they had them in stock for half of what I paid the vendor and they fit fine. Lesson learned........LT
