Default Re-Installing Power steering: Fitting Sizes and q's

Hey, I'm sick of not having power steering. Therefore I want to re install it this summer (4 weeks away) I want to replace all the hard lines w/ rubber, and replace the fittings. Is the power steering cooler needed? Also what size fittings are these (I want to replace w/ barbed fittings) and where do each of them go... Thankyou

did you have the lines looped like the link you posted or did you gut the steering rack?

yes you will need a cooler

i'm not sure your going to want to use rubber lines on everything, some high pressure lines will require hardlines....

i dont know the fitting sizes...lol

Honestly, there are plenty of cars w/o power steering coolers. You'd most likely be fine without. How hard can it be to install though?
