I've broken a lot of stuff over the years, but this was the first upper control arm. The good news is that I had another one from a previous build.
Turns out my mix and match hydroboost/power steering has turned into a pain in the ass. Getting hoses and fittings that all match as they should was the reason I went with premade stuff to start with. Nothing I can't handle, just using here to vent my rant. I love the way Autozone puts their hoses together, but I cross threaded the line from the power steering pump to the hydroboost. That sucked and isn't back together yet. I'm getting too old for this kind of work
Well, that was fun. Finally got it together. After much searching, turns out the hydroboost is from a Mach 1. I don't think I new that they had different lines from the GT. Anyway, got it back together and then started the vacuum bleed process. It took almost 40 turn to lock cycles before I finally got it to stop growling.
