    m50 Swapped car looking to put power steering back in

    The car doesn't currently have AC and i do a bit of local driving. I want to put power steering back in.

    I have the m50 power steering pump and bracket, but I need all the lines and reservoir.

    Do i want to use m50 hoses or the e30 hoses? What is the correct combo of parts? Thanks!

    I used the E36 feed and pressure hose, and I got a bango>barb fitting for the return because I could not make either of the e30 or e36 hose work for the angle it needs. I also ran a cooler.

      Use E36 hoses. Get a used E36 Z3 (non-m) rack too since you're in there.

        This. A 1.9 Z3 rack is even tighter but some people think it's to much. Search eBay or around forums for hardware/spacer kits too. Plenty of how-tos for the swap. Excellent upgrade.
