1. Remove stock pump, reservoir and pressure line to steering box

6. Attach the -6 45 degree Pressure line. Swing pump up and adjust banjo fitting if needed. After determining hose length, install reusable fitting on other end of hose. See Fig 6

8. Swing pump up and install the two bottom 8x20mm allen bolts. See Fig 8

9. Check to make sure there is clearance between the banjo nut / fitting tube and the aluminum bracket. Tighten all pump and adaptor bracket bolts. See Fig 9

Reservoir can also be mounted on the firewall, roll cage or fender.

11. Loosely install the reservoir bracket with two 1/4-20 allen bolts, four washers and two lock nuts. See Fig 11

12. Loosely install the reservoir and check hood clearance. Adjust reservoir height to be as high as possible and mark with a pencil. See Fig 12
