I pieced together my own hydro assist last year for about $300 with all brand new components. Everything has been sitting on my workbench since. I just discovered a considerable amount of play in my sector shaft and don't want to pursue porting this box. Its a 2010 painted steering box so it isn't rebuildable to the best of my knowledge, so I need a replacement.

That's awesome aside from the sector shaft. My 2010 is starting to show signs. I'm trying to his off for a full PSC system. Did you use the thread on here for the parts list?

I used goodys thread on jko for the most part. I sourced different hoses and a different cooler. I picked up the ram on sale for $120 and than hoses, fittings, drill/tap, Artec tb mount, and 15" cooler came to right at $180. Hell of a deal IMO.

I may just pull this box and tap it anyway for the time being. It's survived this long with a sloppy shaft... I can't imagine reducing the load on the box can make anything worse

Any one interested in a oil pan skid plate for the 3.8 from ASFIR. Or a E-disco skid both in good condition. I got a new 10A Rubicon so they don't fit. If your interested let me know. I'm not looking for full value or anything.

There are lots of trails East of Florence or North of Mesa. Either watch for runs on this forum or buy the Guide to Arizona Backroads and 4-Wheel Drive Trails and find the trail you want to go on. But I do not recommend going out by yourself.
