    I'm about to put in a used power steering box.The old one I took out a few months ago. Any advise on making sure I do it right? Day 1 on my journey to get my TJ rolling. I'm about as green as it comes. I'm not sure if there's a systematic approach to the instillation
    Thank you

    Howell fuel injection, header, HEI distributor, TH350, NP208, SOA lift with YJ springs in the front & GW springs in the Rear. AMC20 with G2 1 piece chromos trussed, Dana 30 with G2 chromos and 760x ujoints and MM Stainless Hubs, Geared 4.56. Tom Woods shafts, Metal cloaks, Caged, 37" Toyo MTs.
    If you don't have a good manual, i.e. Chiltons, Haynes, and even better a year specific Dealer Service Manual (DSM), I'd get one. Chiltons or Haynes will be good enough for most jobs. Get a good torque wrench (ft/lbs). I bought 2 Snap-on torque wrenches, click type, 1 for in/lbs, and 1 for ft/lbs for $300 at a pawn shop. Plan on paying $80+/- for a decent one. (no harbor freight) Torque everything down to spec especially all moving parts.
