Route the 5/8”power steering hose to
the new reservoir through the same
notch as the battery cables go through.
It may be helpful to flatten a section of
the fins on the bottom of the A/C con-
denser to ease the routing. Route the
3/8” hose around the end of the A/C
condenser on the driver’s side.

B.

The line from the Power Steering Pump
to the Rack and Pinion is modified, per
7000100. Reinstall the line and check
for the correct orientation. If it is not
correct, loosen the fitting and rotate.
Reinstall the plastic clip to hold the line
in place, as shown in Fig 5-2.

THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM-
MODIFICATION

A.

Mount the supplied power steering
reservoir to the frame rail in front of
the hood release and next to the driver’s
side headlight. Drill two 11/64” holes
and secure the reservoir using the sup-
plied hardware. (See Fig. 5-1.)

Section 5

MODIFICATION OF THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM

Install the existing rubber hose and
hose clamps. The metal line is reversed,
so that the same end remains attached
to the curved rubber tube. Attach the
metal line to the new reservoir with the
provided 5/8” rubber hose.
