Power steering rack return line fitting

So my rb came with no power steering setup, and my chassis came with a brand new powersteering rack. But i have no lines coming off of the rack. My question is where do i get the return line fitting? I can find the lines everywhere, but not the fitting.

The power steering lines connected to the steering rack that go to the Reservoir/Pump have fittings already on them. Unless you are talking about the High Pressure line that goes to the pump which has an Eye Fitting with a Banjo Bolt.

I have searched until blue in the face, and none of the lines i can find come with the fitting that fits in the hole that is on the power steering rack for the return line.
Its all just hoses.

Not sure if you can buy it brand new. I couldn't find it either when I needed the return line for the rack. You can either buy it used from here/craigslist or junk yard and pocket it because its very small.

If all else fails make your own:

Earl's will have a fitting. But instead of regular hose you'll use their push in fitting hose. If i remember correctly the thread pitch is m14x1.5? If not it might be a m12.

I just had the same issue if it's the same as the s13 the fitting is an m16x1.5 I ended up getting a 5/8ths pipe fitting and having it rethreaded to fit, it also is the cooling line for your power steering which is why that hard line that is supposed to go there is so long. I got that fitting and an aftermarket cooler setup for mine
