hello all. i have a 1959 ford 871, i did alot of steering work, what a horror, does anyone know the way the four lines go on the power steering cylinders? i should have marked them, but i did not. I cannot find an illustration that shows where each one connects, Thanks to all who answer, you guys are the best.

I mark the lines now :)
What I had to do is hook the lines up and
disconnect the front ends of the cylinders
from the drag link. Then hang the cylinder
rods from the drag link so they can move
in/out and watch if they are moving
correctly when you turn the steering wheel.
It took me a bit to get my head around it.
Had to study one side at a time - but I got
it after a bit.
