    Bleeding steering

    The instructions say to hold the cylinder while turning the wheel. Is this to be done before the cylinder is installed?

    No- it means after the cylinder is installed and everything is hooked up properly.

    The picture just didn't represent it to be hooked up. I guess it would be like bleeding your brakes with the caliper hanging from a wire. Thanks Robert.

    Is there anyway I could get a copy of those instructions from you ???????? I need to do mine again and I can't find my copy, couldn't find it online either.
    Thanks,
