83SD, I highly recomend not even messing with LMC. Call Jeff's Bronco graveyard. I'm sure they will have the correct parts, as well as fair pricing. I also know their quality of parts is way better than LMC and in most cases the prices are way lower. As an added bonus they have a very knowledgable technical staff that can answer all your questions.
One last thing...JBG is a site sponsor. LMC is not. It's not very good to go to a competitor to get information.

Where does the line that comes directly out of the back (center) of the pump connect on the valve? Is it the left front port or left rear port? <---Directions taken as if sitting in truck.

That would be the High Pressure line, and it goes on the left rear ( as you are sitting in the truck) The return line is on the right rear. Also, looking at mine, the fittings are different sizes, so it would be hard to mix them up.
Also, as a side note, I have spent money with both LMC and JBG, and have been satisfied with both companys for product, and service. I personally would recomend JBG as a first call, good people, good stuff, and they help keep this site up and running, but if someone else has what you want/need, then go for it!

i placed my order through lmc because i already knew alot about them. i will look into jeffs bronco yard. as for our sponser ,everytime i tried to look through their parts i got a page error. i ordered them and im gonna try to get my truck together within the next month. i tried to have them made at a hose supply and they said they couldnt make them because they had to many bends. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR REPLYS!! youve been a big help

i work at autozone and im not able to get them through there and i had called napa but they didnt have it either. i already placed the order for the lines,a glove box,the left and right rear e-brake cables,new radiator cap,new pcv valve,and sum other little things. i just did the front brakes on it and i think im gonna do the rears before i put it on the road. my discount at autozone makes a big difference. plus i can cut my drums for free.
