Hicas Question

[mr 32]

now im just trying to find out if you run a hicas lock bar (gtrgeoff one) and i loop the lines near the rear wheel will the power steering fluid run through those lines still or it wont since the hicas rack is removed so the computer doesnt activate it?

cheers norm

you can loop it there, but you will have to have a high pressure fitting made up for it, if you have a search there is a 8 page thread witht he info and pics you need on the last 2 or 3 pages, in the engine bay you need to loop one of the lines, it bypasses the rear completly and they are low pressure, so just normal hose is used.

there us a hicas solenoid is in the engine bay on drivers side.

you remove the hicas solenoid, and there will be 2 lines leading to back of engine bay (these go to the hicas rack), and 2 other lines. the 2 *other* lines get looped (one of them goes under the engine, the other goes to loop in front of a/c condensor - join them together with some transmission cooler line)
