Have everything ready to plumb the hydro assist and an inline fined cooler, which i mounted in front of the radiator. How is everyone plumbing the return line to the reservoir ? Are you cutting out the factor hard line that runs below the radiator, and just splicing in some 3/8 line? Or are you keeping the factory hard line, and just tapping into the passenger side soft line, and routing it back into itself before going through the reservoir? I tempted to keep the factory hard line for additional cooling properties if any, and it keeps things fairly factory.

Thoughts?

 

On my 2013 I removed the hard line and plumbed 3/8 hose from steering gear to inline finned cooler mounted below the radiator mounted on brackets welded to the forward crossmember and then continues on the reservoir . I used fuel injection hose clamps which to me seem to hold torque better than standard worm clamp. If you are running the stock pump might consider the overdrive pulley from PSC to help with low speed crawling/turning, I did notice a difference after installing on my pump, especially during cold morning start up and backing out the driveway. I also replaced the high pressure line with the one from PSC.
