I just changed my power steering pressure hose and didn't know if I should flush the lines. If so, how do I do that?

Hi,
It really isn't required. Chances are most of the old fluid was lost and replaced when doing the job.
On the other hand, it isn't a bad idea. You will get the remaining old, dirty fluid out of the system. Take a look at this link and let me know if you have questions or if there is anything I can do to help:
