1984 Calais hose needed

Anyone know where to find a power steering return line for an 84 Calais V8? Auto zone only has a generic fitting with a rubber hose.

You can try a NAPA store. Rockauto has AC Delco hose and fitting. Why can't you just buy some hose and use your old fitting?

I was hoping to keep it original instead of a cobbled setup but looks like that's the only viable option. I'm guessing finding a correct NOS hose will be dumb money.

I don't think a replaced power steering hose will make much difference on future value. Use your old fittings and replace the hose.

^^^This. The return hose is low pressure. I don't think anyone sells a complete hose assembly. Even the factory hose only has lightweight clamps holding the hose to the fittings, not the high pressure crimped ends as used on the pressure line.
