I have a 00 LS400 first the power steering sensor got messed up. So than I just tapped it and weld it and no more leaking. After that a week later I’m realizing my high pressure line is leaking from the rubber connection. What do you guys recommend on doing. Can you please help me thank you..

the high pressure line isn't too hard to swap out,

3SX performance made a -AN high pressure line for me. I'd do it again, much less chance of failure.

try emailing info@3SX.com

I looked but do not see their LS400 listing anymore, but I just bought mine last April. I'm sure they still have the thread pitch and measurements so they can probably just make one.

Was it easy to remove and install. Any tips ?

blumagic

yeah it was pretty easy, it is supplied with new fittings to come out of the pump and rack. the OEM pump fitting you have to pull off was a bit of a pain because of the lack of space and you need a fairly large wrench on it.

I unbolted the ABS so I could push it aside a bit more and that helped.

Bluemagic, that is a nice looking hose replacement . I have some of those poly rack mounts (in your photo) as well. But mine got noisy after the grease wore off.
Here is another old PS repair post that I found while I was doing research for my repair. It includes a 2009 photo of his impossibly clean looking alternator.
