I want to build my own hydroassit but i have no clue where i should drill the hole and what size? Your input would be great.
The box is off a 85' 2wd.

Thanks
Rory

One of the major pros of tapping the top and end caps is that if you fawk your steering box half way through Dusy,the Rubicon,or at the Hammers,just about every parts store in America stocks a 2wd Chevy box.Get a ride to town or have someone bring ya in a new box,swap caps,and your good to go.
