Default Which lines to loop(ps delete)

I have been searching, but only see "just loop the lines". Which ones exactly? I dont have my car in front of me to look right now. I am basically looping the pressure and the return right?

Just to clarify, I am looping the 2 lines off the rack, NOT the 2 lines of the pump correct?

Depending on the car, you may, or may not need to get an upper heater hose to remove the cooler/heater for the rack to completely remove everything.

The rack, lines, are the ones that need to be looped. Circulate the rack some once you pull the pump with the tires in the air to work all the fluid out, that will make turning it a good bit easier. Did for me anyway.

Earl's make some #6AN fittings which fit the rack. Both fittings have an oring seal and have different threads (2 different part numbers). Get those 2 fittings and about 8" of #6 SS braided AN hose, and you just loop the 2 ports on the rack.
