Sound like something is either binding when weight is put on the suspension, or maybe something is over tightened? is there play between the stearing box shaft that the arm is attached to and the case when its up in the air?

Did you manually turn the PS pump backwards to prime the system?

Read it in a Haynes manual. Worked for me when I did my V8 swap.

Exactly
I've never had one not bleed that way nor have I heard about turning the pump by hand

Just wondering if you are using tall lower ball joints.With the car on the ground the lip on the lower control arm will bind on the brake rotors. When you raise the front end the lip on the lower pulls away from the brake rotors

As far as having the lines on reverse your steering wheel will vioently shift back and forth. Look that up on YouTube

Can you even reverse the lines??? The fittings are 2 different sizes.
