Default Need a Favor from the Sc3 guys

I recently took apart my power steering to stop some leaks. Good news is the leaks stopped, bad news is that I didn't plan well. 1994 SC300 btw

I have waited for 3 days, searched 100 times on every forum, and PM the CL forum geniuses .. to no avail.

Can someone open their hood and PLEASE look at their power steering reservoir and tell me the orientation of the two hoses in the below posted pictures.

I have made a thread on four different Lexus Forums asking if anyone knew how these were hooked up ... not a single reply. Now I just need someone to go outside and look for me. I'll mail you a dollar

I'm desperate ... as I haven't driven the car in days while awaiting a reply.

Here are the pictures ... try not to be to impressed by my photoshop skills. I charge $200 if anyone needs any badass graphics like these.

The question is (excuse my noob terminology)... Does the hose that is closer to the TAB side of the metal screw on piece - connect to "side 1" or "side 2" in the other picture?

Hey man,

When I get home from work I will check for you. I know the feeling when you need a picture and no-one will help!!

Ya, its funny ... I have pretty much been on house arrest for the last 3 days, as the SC is my only car. Don't wanna ruin it. I eagerly await your post.

Give me the address to send the dollar

Tommy,

I just got home about 30 minutes ago and it is pitch black. I am sorry. I will be getting off early tomorrow so I will be able to let you know then.

Tommy - will be home by around 6 and is the first thing on my list to do. My engine bay isn't stock but it should still have the power steering hoses you are looking at.
