    I decided to drill and tap my steering box for hydraulic assist and I am having a slight problem getting the recirculating balls back into the rack piston :mad:I have built entire vehicles and have not had problems like this so if anyone knows a trick please let me know.The Chilton's manual is not helping very much at this point:?

    Could you give some details on how you determined where to port the steering box and any special tools required for disassembly or reassembly? I've been interested in trying to do this, but haven't gathered enough information or confidence yet to take the plunge.
