I would recomend doing the depowering the steering rack procedure as I've outlined in the 2nd gen archives. I'd definetely recomend it, it's super! If you don't want to do it that way the lines are held on with banjo bolts mostly. Just trace the lines to where they meet the rack and pump and undo them using whatever fittings are there.

PS- Why get junk yard lines when news ones are around $40 for both?
