1973/79 F100/350: There are TWO different P/S pumps.

1973/77: The pump has a steel reservoir. The P/S pressure hose threads onto the pump.

1978/79: The pump has a plastic reservoir. The P/S pressure hose on the pump end...has a straight tube with an O-ring on it.

It attaches to the pump w/a qwik dis-connect fitting.
