how do i get this replace?

how do i replace this power steering hose/line whatever it is? It's crack and i have to go through a quart of p/s fluid every 2 week and 1 quart every 30min drift session. i'm a dumbass....help. i have finals so please. i looked at it and it look like an headach to get it replace. i thought about putting ducktape on it but... it'll never work so i never bother. I'm a cheapass ****.

it looks like you already have it out, so all ya need to do is buy a new one and install it the same way you removed it.

Is it actually cracked or just leaking? And by ps fluid do you mean that power steering fluid you buy at the store or atf?

Power steering fluid will ruin you system and will cause leaks. Our cars take atf, switch to atf and it may stop the leaking if your system isn't too far gone.

I dont mean to hijack but, what type of ATF should be used. I have some MOPAR 7176 (ATF+3) and im going to be replacing my SOHC P/S with a DOHC when i do my swap. Is it ok to use this stuff?
