They use a KRC pump with a ABS power steering box. Link here: http://www.maiermotorsports.com/Stee...r-steering-kit

Pics were posted on facebook. I'll see if I copy and paste once I'm at an actual sit down computer later.

Looks great Mike and now I see the brace you were trying to explain to me...I'm, a bit slow. You mind if I share the pictures you sent of the new rear panhard set up?

Looking forward to seeing Ol'Blue run at Portland in August!

Odd. I dont remember seeing these photos show up on my Facebook feed. I wonder... Does the "lower control arm mount" mount to a cross-member/belly bar for added support or is it just a beefier version of the stock style mount?

Grabber,
The lower control arms are mounted to a beefier LCA mount as well as a cross member that picks up the original frame mounts. There is a considerable amount more room now under the pan.
