This is regarding the high pressure hose...

I am having trouble finding a place that can get this to work... I have both hoses, but nobody seems to be able to join them so I have ea-81 pump connnection and a ea-82 rack connection on one hose. Any suggestions? I am in northern colorado if anyone has any first hand experience with a shop that can do this.

Thanks,

Dan

I took both hoses to a place that can make custom hoses, and they re-used the ends I needed with a new hose...

Just use the EA82 PS pump - it bolts right to the EA81 block (same pump used on the EA81T). Then you just have to deal with the belts, which are a lot easier than the hoses. Plus you eliminate the silly idler hanging way down under the engine - no idler at all with the EA82 pump since the alternator takes care of it.

McBrat, I tried to do this but having a hard time finding a place that was able to do this for some reason...

 

GD, do you have pics of where this would bolt to on an EA81? It dosent seem like it would go in the same place as a non turbo ea81 pump..

It bolts to the same place it does on the EA82, and the EA81T - blocks are the same, and the bolt holes are already there and tapped.
