Can anyone point me in the right direction on what high flow (pressure) power steering pump I can run on my explorer front dress. The stup I got has a used pump, and I intend to install it with a hydro boost assembly along with a 4x4x2 steering box.

Also, I read the tech article on this swap and was wondering if this article is still spot on on what hoses and fittings to use? I have gathered most of the fittings, but still need the Lee fitting to complete my parts (I think).

I'm running a 96' Explorer 5.0 with the stock ps pump. I just did this swap this winter. I swapped to the 4x4x2 box and put a 1.5" hyd. assist cylinder on it. Just got back from a week in Moab with it. My steering is a little slow but was never an issue. I was able to run trails with my front ARB locked if desired. couldn't turn it with my old system.
