Found one. You can see how it loops around.
That really is stupid. A complete waste. I was able to finish up today (i'll get pictures up tonight). It's the same size as brake line (woo hoo), and the fitting was the same as well! I didn't need to flare anything. I was happy i found that. I just cut one flare off, and stuffed that end of the line into a rubber hose, clamped it and it was MUCH easier. Since it was mainly rubber now, I was able to connect it to the box first, than put the box up and move the line into place. The high pressure line same way, but had to be more careful so I didn't bend that one too.
All in all i'm not 100% satisfied, but i'm happy. The wheel doesn't turn for crap with the engine off, i'd probably break the steering wheel before it did anything. It moves around a lot easier now, and handles much better going down the road. I just toyed with it around the neighborhood for now. It still feels a little sticky, like there may be air still stuck in there. Hopefully it works it self out. It's also pretty stiff. Even using my suicide knob it's a little more effort to turn than I was expecting. is that normal? I wouldn't say it feels like anything is binding, just feels stiffer than I expected. Still HECK of a lot better than it was, two fold.
I also noticed while everything was apart, the tre on the pitman arm is no good. It doesn't have any hand movement, but the back of the boot is torn so i'll be getting a new one. Now...i'll be sending it in for an alignment and just have him put it on along with one other TRE. Anything else that he'd be touching for the alignment that I might as well replace?
I also still have that dual steering stabilizer that i never figured out how to install. I'm waiting til i get the alignment and tres installed than i'll decide if i'm going to keep it. If i don't end up needing it i'll just sell it, should have saved the receipt!
