<![CDATA[AN fittings, who is using what?]]>My power steering lines are junk, hard as a rock, rusty ends, and leak all over.  New ones are really expensive.  I am thinking of using AN lines.

So my question is: who is using what brands/suppliers?  And what are you using it for?  Are you happy with it?

Hasn't leaked since spring 2013. Oh and new hose clamps. 

Not my picture.

Dont know much about prices tho. I have picked up a few fittings from them here and there. They are located in Butler, Waukesha and Madison. Just an idea.

What areas are you using them for?  I'm not sure about for the power steering, says good to 500psi or 800psi with crimp fittings.  No problem for oil cooler but pressure from PS pump is right around there or higher.  Looks like they have some good stuff.

methanol/ethanol lines.

I'd be interested to know if you find some Metric to AN conversion fittings. I haven't really looked for any yet but I will be using them for my new oil cooler setup.
