Stock ps tank location

[jsnowman76]

wellllllll first off the guy who owned my supra before me decided that it would be a great idea to take out the power steering tank and some of the hose for the unit. can someone please post up some pics of the stock location (mounting holes) and where in the world the two flexible hoses go to. I found the hard lines but I lose the flexible hose when I try and trace them back up under the engine. thanks.

could someone please post up some closer pictures.

what for? all those pics clearly show what you asked for. Its right on the side behind the thermostat in the first pic. lines run pretty much straight down. might want to check the tsrm for the exact routing.

Line are simple.

Return line from the PS cooler goes into the upper smaller fitting on the tank.
The larger line at the bottem of the tank feeds the power steering pump.

There should be a small line going from the steering rack to the cooler line. (This is the return line off the steering rack, and has a clamp on it.) The pressure side comes off of the pump, and those hoses have swaged fittings on them.

Good luck.

if he wanted he could use the N/A power steering set-up it's alot cleaner looking on a turbo model to me and it makes for easier access to the cps and what not

The NA location gets in the way of the stock plumbing between the intercooler and 3000 pipe (which is why Toyota went to all the trouble to move it in the first place).

Here is a diagram of the hose routing.

Looks like I'm going to go with that NA set up. Question though, what's that little black box to the left of the PS reservoir?

Ah, thanks for the information guys. Got to removing the old reservoir out yesterday. One more part I'm going to be selling as soon as I load the pictures onto the computer!
