High pressure or low pressure? Both rather simple I would think. Tips: drain the low pressure side and save the fluid if is clean to reuse. Be sure to use new crush washers or it will leak. Don't assume a new hose will include them, but they might. Always check, and if they aren't in the box I probably wouldn't buy it unless there were some available. Re-using and old crush washer is a gamble not to take if you can help it. What year is your LS, because power steering pumps leaking from multiple locations is a know issue on these. How's your alternator? Covered in fluid?
