I've read most of the threads on here about blocking off the lines for the 4ws but I have a few questions. I had my car up on a lift because I was redoing the exhaust. While it was in the air I let my friends dad work on the rear steering lines because they started leaking further back towards the rear of the car. From what I understand there are 2 high pressure and 2 low pressure lines? The previous owner said the lines were already blocked off somewhere on the rear diff. I'm wondering if the way my friends dad blocked the 2 high pressure lines was a correct way.
He put some kind of gasket/plug or something where the long metal hardline screws into the lines the curve up into the front power steering rack. How does the fluid run through the system? I'm not really familiar with how EXACTLY the rear wheel steering lines work. Is there anything else I need to block off or should I just say F it and do it the right way by taking out the lines and putting in plugs at the front how every other write up says.
Am I correct on thinking that theres 2 HP and 2 LP lines? Where exactly do the LP lines come from? I know I could of digged deeper down in searching but I like having a more personal advice approach to this. Currently the power steering belt is cut off so there is no fluid is running through it.
