Default 1967 Power steering failure

I have just recently replaced the power steering control valve, the power steering power cylinder, and the power steering pump, and im having problems with my steering... going uncontrollably left and right? any ideas on what the problem might be my fellow peers?

Too easy. You have the short hoses reversed. Just detach them from the cylinder end, and swap them. Ask me how I know…

hmmm... ill have to get to that when i get home... but you possibly think it might be that? they told me that it might be that i didn't prime any of the parts and there might be air in the lines?

I think your best bet is to listen to 22GT, and not "They"

If they -Didn't recognize the steering bouncing around as the small hoses being crossed, "They" don't know a thing about the Power Steering.
