Alrighty I have had a couple emails asking about the power steering lines that I made up so I'm going to post right now about this to help clear some things up for people who haven't done this before.

The point at which I put my power steering pump on my 1UZ engine swap can be found in my long 1UZ engine swap thread here.

It's a pretty specialized deal to get a new one made properly. I spent a couple days figuring mine out and had to do a lot of asking around to find the right help. You basically get what pump you are using (mine was lexus sc/ls400 obviously) and then your rack. Then you MUST use the fittings from the stock fluid lines that came with each unit from the factory. If you are getting a pump from a Chevy and a Rack from a different vehicle from a wrecking yard GRAB THE LINES that connect to each one. It's a HUGE hassle to find the adapters and fittings for these specialized applications - especially if they aren't GM or Ford!
