What fitting do I need???????????
Is the steering gear on the truck the factory one? If so I believe that those had a 45* flare whereas the hose from the 99 4.8 p/s pump has an O-ring to seal it. My suggestion is to get one fabbed up at a joint that makes hydraulic hoses. Use the part of the 99 hose that goes into the p/s pump and get one that fits into the trucks steering gear and have them put them together.
If you dont have the hose that goes into the steering gear find a junkyard and get one from a truck up to about mid late 70's. My 82 had metric threads; thats why I said mid late 70's. Heck the hose shop might even have something that would work for the truck side.
Is that clear as mud?

I figured I would have to buy a hose assembly for a later model truck and have it crimped to mine, I didn't know if the was a fitting that I could use to screw in the pump and on my 67 line. Thanks guys
