Power steering and A/C delete

How do you do it??

Some have had issues with not being able to turn the wheel do to the steering rack not getting fluid.

How do you route those lines??

With the A/C, are the lines just capped off or what's done with those.

Well technically to do the A/C legally you have to have the refrigerant vaccuumed out then you can just unscreww the linder from the firewall and pull the pump and condenser if you wish. On the power steering your wanting to remove that too? Not sure about the motor itself but the pump can just unbolt and you can unscrew the lines there as well. Dont see why you should have to reroute the PS lines for any reason. Dont quite understand why people want to remove this stuff. I can see on a car that is going to be tracked only where that would make a difference but for a DD I just dont understand it. I still have A/C and PS with no issues.

Is There any way to install a motor without breaking the AC lines open? The high pressure line is the only one that's prolly going to be in the way.

Of course just unbolt the a/c pump from the engine block. You might hook a strap to it to hold it out of the way while you drop in the new engine but ya I've done it several times.
