power steering cooler installed, broke the return line fitting off the reservoir, walked to the parts store and got an 1/8"NPT to 5/16 barb elbow and "Tapped" it in and rtv'ed the snot out of it. it seems to bee holding so far but the pump seems to groan A LOT. i bleed the crap out of it so there shouldnt be any air in the system. if it doesnt hold up i still have the wj pump i can toss on(didnt install it today cause it was at my apartment 20 miles away from where i was working on the jeep)
