To everyone watching this, be sure to install your inverted brass ferrules into the steering box before you start ! We’ve all done it before , when you’ve see two pieces laying on the shop bench ;);) damnit lol

[@doughawkins7440]

Thank you for taking the time to put the detail list together. I know it has saved me a tremendous amount of time and expense on myC10 LS swap. Thanks again!

[@Val-xi4we]

TY! I would not have even known that pump adapter existed if not for this video!! Its a very very useful for any swap using a type II pump! I'll be using a nut and flare tool to adapt my YJ hose to 6an.

[@NDB390]

Factory powersteering hoses work. Just need the o.ring adapter fitting to go into pump and screw factory hose into that. If you don’t want to use AN setup.

[@hermyherm365]

I can’t wait to see this thing all finished up !

[@paulkc10]

Me either! Getting closer - Inch by inch

[@Squarebody1987]

C10 is coming along really nice keep up the good progress man keep those videos coming too

[@3rdGenC10s]

Good info I’ll be using AN lines on my 2wd k5 build as well, keep up the great content!

[@mrmidnight32]

wtf is earl smoking… he was $50 per AN fitting now. I swore it was like $15 back when this video came out 🤣

[@phillipa7595]

Doing mine with evil energy line and fittings..have trans and fuel lines with their products and haven't had any faulty or trash quality items

[@Ryan............]

Great video. I'll be making some soon

[@Shadetree_Mechanic]

liked and subscribed! Im doing an LS swap on a 1950 Thriftmaster and Im getting ready to create the hoses for the power steering rack. Thanks for listing all the parts used and making this vid so clear !

[@djazzy1016]

Hey Paul, at 4:30 you said installing that return with the AN hose clamp was hard. You're right! How did you get it on? Did you drill out the hose a little to make room or just kept muscling it? I know you sold the truck man. You're a better man than me! Thanks for a followup.

[@paulkc10]

Yea I drilled it out and put some of the assembly lube on it. Still had to muscle it up with all that.

[@bogeywins]

Thank you so much for this! I'm swapping to a hydroboost unit in my Vette, and the fittings you linked are going to save me a good bit of time. Sub'd

[@paulkc10]

Awesome, glad it helped!

[@juanbarturen2726]

great information, Thank you. One question! The pressure hose, how much slack for expansion does one have to leave. I have a 54 Chevy truck. With a V8, and the front suspension from a 1987 C 10. I pieced together a hose so I could go to Hydraulic supply.

[@austinbaker5498]

holy shit at 4:50 i thought that return line was gonna SNAP at the back of the pump

[@jlgarcia3700]

Greeting Paul thank you these video. You give us inspiration and guidance on our projects. I am hoping to start on c10 as soon as I’m down with our family JK Jeep Wrangler. Any chance I can get your to do list? I have stored every one of your videos with the idea that I will make notes, purchase the items and hopefully complete my project.

👍😊

[@TEAMPHY6]

Did you have any issues with the aluminum AN hose ends on the high pressure side?

[@paulkc10]

Those are steel fittings for high pressure

[@giovanniaguilar3062]

Do you have a part number for the pump you used? I purchased the box but not sure what pump you have

[@tntbbq85]

I have part number 961961ERL but it's not even close to fitting into ls power steering reservoir , am I missing something?

[@adnanihsan5642]

Do you have list or detailed video on how and where did you mount your ac compressor and power steering pump to your LS?

[@paulkc10]

Power steering is in the stock location and I’m not running an AC compressor

[@RideUnited28]

Whats the part number for fitting to the pump before u changed an fitting

[@nkcwilliams]

Do you notice light steering with the LS pump? I thought I read somewhere that the LS was higher pressure and gave light steering

[@paulkc10]

Everything feels fine to me. I also never ran this steering gear with anything other than the LS pump.

[@kustominstinct]

What is the true size of the hose ?

[@5ociopathic]

Don't know why, but for some reason AN fittings have always confused me

[@petejoseph8257]

Grease them AN threads and cones before assembly.

[@MrJoelopez13]

The power steering is the original Chevrolet or did you buy it ??? why buy part 961961ERL and it is not the same

[@paulkc10]

It is not the Chevrolet box, it’s the CPP quick ratio unit. Link is in description.

[@BerryHenkel]

how does the inter fender fit?

[@MrJoelopez13]

where did you buy the power steering? or is it the original ????

[@paulkc10]

CPP

[@orlandodiaz4504]

Hi.. I got a question what to do with the engine oil cooler... I have not seeing any videos on c10 ls swap...

[@paulkc10]

Are you trying to delete it?

[@orlandodiaz4504]

I really don't know what to do.. what you suggest?

[@paulkc10]

I don’t run a cooler

[@orlandodiaz4504]

Just plug them.. that's what you doing?

[@paulkc10]

There’s a block off plate

[@pubgmobile-noxious895]

[@paulkc10]

[@williamlopez4934]

What's your pressure rating on your line?

[@paulkc10]

[@marshen4704]

[@dickmick5517]

Paul; thanks for the video. I know it was done some time ago. However I was wondering how the lines cleared the inner fender? I know they are close in this area.

[@paulkc10]

Haven’t put the inner fenders in. I’ll make them fit
