    6.0 swap power steering lines

    Swaps going good, have a few questions though. Trying to figure out what lines go where. My old setup had 2 lines (hi and low pressure) coming straight out of the steering box, going to the power steering pump and resevoir. On the 6.0 motor, there are 3 hook ups available, BUT I only have those 2 lines? lol What do I do?

    That power steering pump is set up for hydroboost. Easy way out? 4.8/5.3 power steering pump.
