I have read some about diff swaps and ram steering but what is every one running ?
Like with lux diffs do you run a lux box ?
or suzuki power steering ?
With MQ diffs do you run MQ steering box ?
What is a good steering choice ? depending on tire size.

with the locker on and a few revs it is still quite easy to turn

I've got the MQ diffs fitted with 36" Simex's and it is powered by a Vit power steering pump and box with the addition of a cooler.
Seems to handle it OK.

Good point Jim, add a cooler if your running bigger diffs/tyres

I extended the sierra column as i moved the box forwards. The sierra steering shaft fits the spline on the Vit box.

I belive that you can use the little yota universal joints to connect em up (same as what is on Lux's etc) the shaft diameter and spline count are the same.
