SOURCE: removal of power steering pump on 1998 GMC Sierra 1500
you need a power steering pump puller the rest is simple any trouble let me know
SOURCE: I have a 2000 GMC
I think you'll find sender & pump are all one assy. What is the reason for changing. If it's the gauge, have you removed, cleaned contacts & re-attached wire plug at pump/sender assy, to see if it would cure your problem? Personally, it's not something I'd want to do twice in a short time, so if I was replacing one (if parts are available to do so) I'd replace the other, unless difference in price was extreme.

It sounds like it's your Headlight switch has gone bad, I'm thinking that the high beams are the daytime running light which is the same as your High beams.
If you go to Auto Zone or Parts Source, they have the replacement switch with step by step instructions. Try not to run your Headlights too long from your running light's. The headlight's draw more amps then the running lights and can melt the wire which can result in a short and worst a fire.
If you remove the headlight switch from the dash, check the orange wire for power, if there is 12 volts. Good chance's are that the switch is bad, common on the GM's.
Good luck and hope this helps. I believe they go around $70.00 or do what most guys do. Salvage Yard range from $10.00 to $40.00 and there also have warranty.
SOURCE: Auxiliary battery use
The extra battery is there because of the glow plugs and intake heater of the duramax. During cold weather both of these systems draw high amperage from the batteries. A single battery will function, but not as well as a pair.

I'm not sure what engine you have in your truck but the chevy's are pretty staight forward in design. Out of the two hoses that you have one is a pressure line and the other is the return. Mostly on the Chevs the pressure is the one that will give you a problem. The one that you can see and is easily accessible is most likely the return line and is a hose on a barbed fitting with a hose clamp. The other is the pressure and as the name suggests the hose clamp will not hold this one so yes it has a fitting that screws into the back of the power steering resevoir. Sometimes you can get to the resevoir from underneath but most likely you will have to remove the power steering pump to get at the hose to reattach the new one. usually not as easy as it sounds as you will have to remove the pulley (press fit) with a power steering pulley remover/installer to access one of the mounting bolts behind it. Hope this helps.
