How difficult is it to put the long power steering hose on my 96 cutlass supreme? I can see where the hose is busted but it goes way up under the car and is very compact there. Would i be able to fix this or am i going to have to take it in to a shop? Thanks!

If i do have to take it in to be fix can someone give me a ballpark price of how much it is going to cost?

Probably looking at $250 for labor to replace the pressure gose. That hose can be as much as $150 for the part. Either way it doesnt look like an easy or cheap job.
