That’s kinda what I thougt all along, Ron.
My hose is in there and it
works but the only way was to snake it around alongside and under the carb/ram
and up around/near the brake tube from the M/C and finally almost a 180 degree
bend in the hose near the end where it goes into the sector.
Not real
proud of that side of the whole shebang appearance wise that is.
How’s it
going out w/you folks in New England what w/all the white crap??
Don V., I
hope your shop is attached to the house so Ya don’t hafta tunnel your way to
it!!

One mistake that's easy to make (and I have personal experience) is
that all is quiet and peaceful under the hood when you are working out the
routing for the hose, but that changes when you fire it up. My car is a C, but
the challenge may be similar on your later Letter Cars. I didn't count on the
torquing and vibration of the engine - and consequently the PS hose - when I ran
the engine. The hose was pressing ever so slightly up against the edge of the
battery tray, and the tray had no problem at all cutting through the hose before
I had 100 miles on it. SSPPPTTTT !!! all over everything!

That’s what I was afraid of.
Of all the
hoses for 1960 w/Chrysler part #’s, none cross over to NAPA #’s in my ’85
NAPA/Chrysler master interchange book.

I have purchased a few from Rock Auto. They aren't restoration
replicas, but for a driver, they work fine.
