Default Power Steering High Pressure Hose nut size

I need to replace the high pressure hose and turns out I don't have the right open ended wrench size. Does anyone remember or know the size on the pump and steering knuckle?

Thanks,

Van

From the top of the pump to the steering box?

I'm changing this hose next week myself, leaks like a screen door on a submarine, but I don't know the wrench size. I will just check with each of my wrenches until I get the right one.

Just finished it up tonight. Took me about 15 mins. Thanks all for letting me know the size. 18mm and 5/8ths. I had the 5/8ths but didn't have an 18mm. An excuse to get another wrench. I just moved and don't have all my tools with me which is why I posed the question. I knew I needed to go buy a wrench to get me though but didn't know the size. You guys are the best!
