Depending on condition and what you are going to do (I am also installing a later model 3½ turn lock to lock steering gear) you might grab the hoses (they won't work in your steering box just the later ones). Otherwise you will have to have hoses made with the correct fittings (some nice braided hose would look cool). You will notice that the return line from the booster goes to a fitting on the PS pump that ours do not have, not to worry just put a T in your return hose from the steering box to pump and connect it there.
Thank you Larry, I shall see what I can find.
