Datz510 moved his. I recall one or two hydro-assist setups.

When did you last check your spare tire's pressure?

Hydro-assist is my next project.

major Requirements.
1) tapped steering box
2) higher pressure and higher flow steering pump. If you don't do this steering will be very slow and not as strong as you need.

Moving a steering box is quite simple. Drill new holes and move forward. You could also swap boxes this way. You'll have to get new longer hydraulic lines.

Here are some links.

Except when there's a body mount in the way...
