None of the local dealerships have one for me to look at and they won't get one in without sale (fair enough I guess). I just want to make sure before I install a hydraulic winch.

It is a 1/4" "Bump" fitting.

Is the PAS pump on a D2 a ZF pump? Or is the ZF an upgraded pump? And if its an upgrade, do the hoses match or are they also changed? Thanks Dean   Paul T.

Quick and easy (although presumptive) check is to look for the ZF trademark on the reservoir. I think it would be fairly safe to assume that they will have the same fittings as it is an industry standard and also standard for many of the hard-line plumbing on the Rovers.   Dean Brown (Deanbrown3d) Senior Member Username: Deanbrown3d Post Number: 470 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Wednesday, February 19, 2003 - 11:51 am:    Alright thanks paul, I'll give it a shot this weekend.
