I just replaced the High Pressure Power Steering hose on my 2001 Kia Optima.

I found that the best way to do it was to remove the WHOLE hose from the pump side (easy), and then I removed the other end of the hose from the joint that goes into the steering box. Then I worked the whole hose assembly out of the engine compartment the best way that I could!

I tried to separate the two pieces back by the firewall, but that was unsuccessful. Even after I weaseled the whole hose assembly from behind the firewall by removing the firewall clamps and the whole air filter, I needed to use a torch and a vice (don't crimp the hose) to get the two pieces separated.

Of course, putting them back in reverse order was a lot easier!
