A cheap way to get larger fluid capacity is to gather a couple of stock power steering reservoirs, cut the bottom out of one and the top of the other and weld the two together. You will have close to double the capacity, the stock hoses still work and it costs next to nothing assuming you have access to another reservoir. I welded three together but without my 3" body lift I wouldn't be able to close the hood. After I welded them together I was gonna put JB weld around the seams them sand it smooth so it would appear to be one piece but I got lazy and skipped the sanding. Just extra insurance against leaks and I had a couple tubes in my tool box. I'm sure a better looking one can be made but aethetics was not important to me, just it being leak free.
If you still have control you aren't going fast enough
