This is the best pic I have of my old setup. looks like you have IMCO extension boxes with the long offset for your steering rams. Mine are stellings and the steering ram comes right off the side of the box. Making up a plate similar to what was on the bravos to align the steering rams for the IMCO uppers. Tie bar will still work. Just wondering what affect it may have on the upper with the plate bolted there.

I also use torco as others have stated. Nothing against Royal Purple but the way I see it is torco is what imco suggests and they are the ones that did the R&D on the drive so that is what I use. I know it is a little pricey but if I did have a problem I bet the first question they would ask is what drive oil did you use. This is just my opinion. I am no expert.

Amsoil just came out with a 75-250 Marine Gear Lube for drives. Try it and let me know how it works.
My rep said, "try it, if the drive breaks, don't pay for it".
Uh, OK?
