Unhappy Need help with trans cooler lines and power steering pressure hose

Just finished getting the engine and trans back in and then I realized we took the cooler lines out and the power steering line is tucked close to the engine. The guide isn’t helpful really. Does anyone have pictures or know where the lines should go?

If your talking about the pressure line for power steering (metal/rubber) the metal line runs alongside the engine (above the oil pan, has a weird turn (from what I recall goes to the rear and over the AC compressor, comes back down, across, 90 degree bends and should end right beneath the port of the PS pump.

I changed it a few months ago, that is my best recollection.

If engine and trans are both in the car feed the line from beneath, from the rack going towards the front of the car.

If you try the other way you'll drive yourself nuts!
