Power Steering removal

I'm ordering a alternator low mount kit. It removes the power steering pump and A/C. I'm going to use stock power rack. What do I need to do where the hose screwed into the rack?

You probably already have the answer to this, but you want to evacuate the rack and plug it. Some guys leave the fluid in it for lubrication, but all that does it make it harder to steer. Either method will pretty much ruin the power rack unit, so be sure before you go ahead with this mod.
