Is this the right part?

Hey guys, I just want to make sure I am getting the correct part. I have a 1996 4runner, 3.4L.
My power steering has been messed up because of a leak in a hose. I think it's the high pressure hose, not the return hose but I might be getting the names mixed up.

The leak has gotten worse to the point where I fill it up and an hour later it's empty so i need to fix this.

When I look at the power steering reservoir there is a hose coming out of the left side of the reservoir, that hose is fine. There is another hose coming out of the metal power steering pump, it goes down above the skid plate and that is the hose that's leaking... Is that the pressurized hose?

Also, has anyone installed one? Is it difficult?

Thanks,

The pressurized one is the one with the banjo fitting on the left side of the pump. The return hose is underneath, if I remember correctly.

Its not hard to replace. I cut mine by accident with a angle grinder. I took it to a hose shop for a repair because I couldn't find a replacement for under $200 or something ridiculous. The hose shop was quick and cheap, and held up great.

The ends that go into the rack and pinion are tight, but doable.
