Re: PO has me PO'd
Jim...my build is going well. Just slow. I had to work most of the month of February so I haven't done much lately. However I hope over the next couple weeks to make some significant progress. Here are a couple pics. Thanks for asking.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks Chad for watching, progress looks good on your truck
Been in contact with Petersen fluid to make a new power steering canister, don't want to use a 'T' fitting, so I'll add another -6 fitting to the can for the return. Drawing should be done Friday, and about a week to build, if the drawing is correct. They told me the fitting inside should have a bend, so to swirl the fluid and allow the air to separate. My plan is to mount it on the prop. valve bracket

Re: PO has me PO'd
That's the right port for high pressure. I just checked mine for confirmation.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Ordered my remanufactured power steering pump from NAPA yesterday, arrived this morning 8 am, 40.00 w/ core.
[url=https://flic.kr/p/ErW6Bx]  [/Just have to make up some hoses  Found a fitting supply that doesn't know the meaning of " not in stock". Pure choice motorsports, needed a an -6 female swivel to 90 degree bend 3/8" push on barb, for the low pressure port on the steering box Also, my SS socket head cap screw are about 1/2" long for the mount, so I'll have to get some shorter ones

Re: PO has me PO'd
If you don't mind my asking, what is the application or part number for that PS pump?

Re: PO has me PO'd
Sure captain, 1972 350 cu. in. GMC jimmy and pick up
NAPA's part #38-5141, I bought mine w/o tank, you can get either way. No pulley and no mount, but was an exact match to mine. My pulley had a key If you get yours w/o tank, make sure you keep your mounting bolts for the tank, as it doesn't come with them, but does include the pressure port fitting

Re: PO has me PO'd
Most people don't realize how tedious all the plumbing and wiring work is. Keep it up.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Thanks AJ for following along, you're rite about tedious. Set back with the kink kinda deflated my balloon.
Upstate NY right now, grandkids and an old wooden boat are taking up my time at the moment. My son has me working on the wiring harness, like I don't have enough of my own... Didn't post up any picks of my fish this year

Re: PO has me PO'd

Re: PO has me PO'd
Installed the last of the high pressure hoses, swivel makes it much easier as you don't have to worry about the orientation of the fitting when assembled. I highly recommend using them on any hose application. Also, I use grease on the threads of the fitting when I swage it up

Re: PO has me PO'd
Jim. Good write up on your power steering plumbing for me. I too am going to run that Hydratech unit and a remote fluid reservoir.

Which m/c are you going to use? Remote tank is supposed to be no further away then 13" so keep that in mind Also, tell Jim you want a banjo fitting instead of the supplied fitting that comes with the kit
