Call Pete/Tazz at OPW.

Theres alot involved in fitting and alot more cost then just the shocks themselves.

They are not cheap. Best would be a 2nd hydro pump. Hydro lines, relief valve = $$$$

i run all my hydraulics off a single pump, but you still need the valves and manifold for them, alot of hydro lines and fittings which add up real quick, cooler..etc
