it looks way better now that everything is straightened out!  you asked what is involved for setting up the full hydro steering compared to the hydro assist... the only extra amount of work you will have to do for full hydro is to mount the steering valve, which is really easy. PSC makes weld on brackets for those.  everything else will literally be the exact same amount of work.  If you get a single ended full hydro ram it will mount with two pairs of tabs just like a hydro assist ram.  one set of tabs goes on the axle housing and the other set goes on the tie rod.  With full hydro you will have to make and run the same amount of hydraulic lines as hydro assist.  If you do the very small amount of extra work finding a spot to mount the steering valve for a full hydro setup, you will be glad you did it!
