Subject:      detaching power steering fluid lines
Content-type: multipart/alternative;

hey folks,
i am in the middle of a power steering rack removal and install, and im still trying to get the old rack out.  right now, im having trouble undoing the the power steering fluid lines from the steering rack housing.  there is a double nut configuration on the end of the fluid lines where they attach to the rack.  i can get the nut/bolt closer to the rack to move counter clockwise, which is probably the right way for it to move, but i cant figure out what to do with the other nut/bolt, ie which way to turn in or hold it, while im turing the one closer to the rack.  should these nuts/bolts move relative to each other?  which way should i be turning the one further away from the rack? cw or ccw?
