jzx81 to MX83 power steering rack

Hey guys, My jzx81 speed sensitive rack is rooted i believe...ever since i knocked a gutter quite hard ages ago, it hasn't been the same, making a horrible whirring noise through the pump.
I've stripped the pump, replaced the seals and bearing and there seems to be no noticible problems inside that. I then bled the system and it still makes shite noises.
Anyways, i want to put the mx83 rack back in, but the lines enter the rack at a different angle, i just wanna know the most simple way around this.
Should i just hand the car and the spare lines and such to enzed or is there a more simple/cheap way to replace the steel hard lines or at least make them fit?
How do people go about this when putting say, a jzx90 engine into a cressy and using the original rack?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Troy

I put a JZA70 1J in my Cressida.Used the MX83 rack.All i did was get custom lines made from Enzed.The steering is light as.
Make sure you clean the filter out in your p/s resivoir.
Dont do what i did.Go thru 3 p/s pumps in 9 months coz the filter was blocked up.
