410 power steering hose
 

Recent modification work to my 410, particularly fitting air conditioning, has prompted me to peer under a good few bonnets recently. One thing that I noticed is that the majority of 410s I have seen have had replacement power steering hoses made up that are quite different to those fitted by the factory. I was told many moons ago - possibly by Setright - that the peculiar drop in diameter half way along was in order to counter pulsation or fluid resonances.
Has anyone changed a factory hose for one of a different type and noticed any difference in feel?

With any luck I have managed to attach a picture of a factory hose.

The lack of any response ar all suggests nobody has. I certainly didn’t.
