of the rack. Connect the hoses to the pump. They can only attach to the pump one way. Make sure
the hoses are away from the headers. The smaller diameter hose is the pressure line and mounts to
the lower larger port of the rack. The large diameter hose is the return line and mounts to the upper
smaller port of the rack. Use the provided hydraulic stop leak on each side of all crush washers and
tighten each banjo fitting. Once tight with the stop leak do not break loose. A leak free seal may not
be created a second time with the crush washers on the banjo fittings.

13. When your lines are connected and all hardware is tight you may top off the fluid in the reservoir and

start the car. Use only power steering fluid. DO NOT USE ATF.

small turns and gradually make your way out to full lock to lock turns.

15. Shut the car off and make sure you have no leaks and the level is full.

16. When your install is complete it will be necessary to have an alignment done.
