Default IMCO extension box hydraulic steering question

i apologize if I'm in the wrong section.... I'm looking to put a Imco box on my outlaw with 3" raise. Therefore I need to add full hydraulic steering as well which is good, but I want to review all parts and options to know what I'll be installing. Don't necessarily want the cheapest route, or the most expensive one. I've already talked Imco and a distributor and asked both to send me a parts list but their lists are basically two groups of parts with no individual components listed, not much help.

My biggest questions right are - are there any other steering rams that work with the Imco box with the wings? What do the Imco rams cost seperatley? If some of you guys that have done this were doing to do it again would you buy the whole kit, or buy individual parts - for example, the kit comes with a separate filter and reservoir, or one can buy a reservoir and filter in one unit seperatley. Thanks!

I bought an IMCO neutral box for my Daytona but had Marine Machine hyd steering. - all I had to do was have the pins that mount the rams to the extension box wings turned down a little to fit the M.M. plastic bushings.

So you left a "shoulder" on the pins where they fit in the Imco wings and only turned down portion that goes through the ram?

Are the Imco Rams for the extension bodes the same ones used without extension boxes?

Yes I left the top of the pin original to fit the hole in the wing and just turned down the pin from the thread up
