i dropped my tranny because im changing the clutch, and i noticed that powersteering fluid was dripping from 2 lines. why does the ps need to run to the tranny?

 

the 2 power steering lines go to the VSS, the vss not only measures speed for you speedo but also has to do with limiting of fluid presure that goes to the PWR steering system so that when your going say 90mph there is not as much power steering asist as if you were sitting still.

 

cool, thanks for the info, i learn something new everyday. btw how do i make sure that there is no air bubbles in the ps system when i bolt the tranny back up?

The reservoir is at the top of the system I don't believe a bleed is necessary
