Default CALLING OUT H-T PROS: POWER STEERING INSTALLATION HELP

Can anyone here write a detailed DIY installation of power steering on a 99 civic cx to be exact? I know, I know power steering are for weak, scrawny guys but I live in an area where I have to parallel park most of the time into tight spaces and I dont have as much maneuverability of the car as I did before since I'm used to turning the wheel with one hand and this "overhand" driving when turning make my arms tangle up literally! Can you guys also list all the parts needed like hoses and lines, pump, reservoirs, etc. Normally I'd let professional technicians to work on my car but since I'm studying Automotive Tech. I might as well work on it myself and scavenge parts from a local junkyard since I'm broke Oh and before you guys ask why I dont ask my teacher for help is simply because I can't work on a non-related task since I have Fuel Sys. class right now and we probably won't start until the next 5 months or so


Serious helps and suggestions only

That's a hell of a project. It would be a hell of a lot easier on yourself if you just found a wrecked car and took notes as you removed everything. Be sure that you get the steering rack in addition to all the other parts.
