From the camera mans point of view the one on the right is the return and the one on the left and further back is the pressure line one.

Look at the frame. It's obviously not a Scout.

Yea, the hole furthest forward towards pitman & inward towards the engine(or the line above the head) is the pressure side. If the PUMPwhines, the pump itself may be bad

Here's some pics of the ps box

The line closest to you to the right is the smaller hole, thats the one the hydro line shop told me was the high pressure in...

I believe they have them crossed...

If you have seen my other post Im not too thrilled with them so far ether.... BAD HYDRO LINE SHOP!!! (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=73243)

Nope.. not a scout, its a 98 ranger /w waggy 44. As for the steering pump im pretty sure its fine because it worked perfectly before we started the swap and only has 55k on it.

That whine most likely means you got air in the system. Keeping the front tires off the ground, run the steering wheel back & forth a bunch - watch air bubbles gather in pump reservoir, Shut off, let tiny bubbles dissipate, repeat. Add fluid as necess....

Aireating PS pumps SUCK ASS!!

You get air in the lines/box when you disassemble them and stick em all back together...

Or, bypass the whole box/steering shaft crap & get an orbital valve!:flipoff2:

Back to my hole...
