Some advice for P/S

The p/s and a/c are off my car, as is the whole rack, and I DON'T want to put anything back on. Can I get some pictures or short descriptions on how to either plug the holes or route the lines together, I'm a little confused :/ I'm thinking I can either 1: just get a bolt that'll fit the holes and seal it, but it doesn't seem like the wisest thing to do; or I could 2: get some kind of pipe or tubing, flange the ends and loop it around? Some pictures of what people have done would be greatly appreciated.

You make it sound as if the whole rack is off, but then you go on to say that you want to plug or re-run some tubing.

Which is it? Is the PS rack still in the car?

question is: I have the a/c p/s rack off along with the p/s and a/c off, i want to keep them off. How can i seal up the steering box? Should i plug the holes, or should i loop the holes together.

I plugged mine with a type of plastic push cap. Kind of like the ones that are holding alot of the interior trim pieces, but with a much larger diameter. I added a bit a silicone to help seal them a little better. I also didn't notice the steering to be any more stiff or loose as compared to the manual rack.

I got the caps from homedepotracing.com
