hey instead of doing that crimp on fitting, could i get this?
#6 Field Serviceable 90 Degree Large OD-HA2-690 : Steering Hose and Fittings, Fittings Only | PSC Motorsports - performance steering components
or could i get one of thses, put it in the hose and put a couple hose clamps on it and tighten it down. seems like it would work?

and thats for the big hose that has the crimp on end. just seeing if i could do one of those instead of taking that hose off and getting a fitting crimped on

Save yourself future headaches and have a shop crimp the proper fittings.

hmmm........how did u attach it to the hose? and for the second fitting i posted, it seems like if i had 2 hose clamps on there it would be snug. and i would put a nice bit of silicone around the barb part of the fiting before i slid it in so it would have better sealing. and thanks for the advice in advance man

you have to take the pulley off. then loosen the pump. its not too hard.
I also agree about doing it right. If there is one thing I learned never skimp on steering or brakes, you are a fool to do so. I have blown steering lines, which sucks fluid goes everywhere and you more than likely will need a new pump afterwards. Same with the steering shaft. Those suck when they break as you are driving. Ive had it happen twice.
The LP side is easy, just barbed fittings and you might need hose clamps thats simple. The HP side needs crimped on fittings and compression fittings, that can be upwards of 1600psi on the stock system alone.
