Power steering burst pipe - parts source

[kernowman]

Got myself a slight problem - due to circumstances beyond my control, I am unable to do my own work on my Ex at the moment. However, have a trusted friend who is doing the work for me.
Need to replace the two pipes (the ones with the large unions) that are on the steering rack. Had a look at Rock Auto and the pipes there, according to my guy, are nothing like what is on the car. Are we going wrong somewhere? Ford seem to know what we need (will not give us the part numbers though), but say one is unobtainable as obsolete and the other, if they can get it, is £186
Can anybody put me on the right track, please. I am happy with any suggestions, don't even mind secondhand ones (mine are completely rotten).

First off pm chris quelch see if he has them, secondly you could try justin at explorer parts if you can get hold of him or any ex breaking on ebay

Pleased to say I am up and running again, thanks to Chris. Just need to sort the lpg out - getting a bit expensive running on petrol all the time
