Any tips to changing high pressure hose on power steering?? 95 camry

[midnight02]

I am helping a friend.. Someone gave him a 95 camry V6 169,000 miles.. we are fixing a few things and selling it for profit.. One thing is the high pressure line crimp fitting is spraying fluid everywhere.. its where the hard line transitions to rubber.. We have a new hose.. but can't get to the banjo bolt.. we were using ramps and are going to try again with it up on jackstands and remove the wheel.. The other thing is how do you get the hose off the rack.. there isn't enough room to fit a standard wrench in there.. I got if broke lose but then I couldn't get the wrench back on there to losen it anymore

Anyone have experience replacing this hose? it's been a pain in the butt so far.. so any advice you can give me would be extremely helpful.

you should get a cheap set of "crows feet" socket wrenches and some long extensions. theres no easy way to remove that stuff without taking half the engine bay apart.

I have a cheap set of crows feet.. but I think I only have an english set not metric.. Will definitely give it a try though, thanks!!!

i know this is an old post, but i think have have the same problem, the pressure hose was squirting, i bought a new one, now i was able to loosen the nut by the pump, but it wont come of, seems like theres another nut or something right under it, and it keeps moving with the nut im trying to take off, so how did you do it in the end???please help if possible.
