5VZ-FE power steering pressure line replacement
Took my 02 Taco 5VZ-FE into my mechanic for some drivetrain work and he pointed out a leak in the power steering pressure line. He said it wasn't a major concern right now but would need to be replaced. I've found the part I need to replace and it looks like a fairly simple procedure. Has anyone done this themselves? I don't want to get started and then get stuck not being able to finish the job.

Usually a high pressure line that leaks will be under high pressure and it will pump all your ATF out of your leaky line very quickly, but regardless, the job should be straight forward, if it is the steel line and rusted bad, just cut the line off at the fitting and use sockets to remove the fittings from the rack. Ive seen a few 4R's leak right at the front of the motor on a power steering line mount that holds both high and low pressure lines.
