So I got a YO power steering return hose for my car and the description says its 11/32; is that inside diameter or outside diameter? I'm replacing the nonfactory hoses for the power steering and currently the return hose is a monster size and the 11/32 return hose is too small to fit the current return hose fitting on the gear box.

Anybody know what size fitting I need on the gear box for the 11/32 return hose please.

Or I guess I could just take the fitting and hose to a hydraulic hose shop and have them find the correct fitting for me.
 
Yeah, it's id. The return hose was just clamped on, but I don't remember the size of the fitting.
 
Yes, the hose is merely clamped on, but I was hoping somebody might know the fitting size that threads into the gearbox. Oh well, guess I'm pulling the hose and fitting tonight when I get home so I can pick up the new fitting tomorrow. All these little details to get right before firing up the new motor.

It should be a real hoot working in the garage tonight with the garage temp at 25degrees and outside temp being subzero.
 
Just working on your car should keep you warm and fuzzy inside, lol!!
