Never heard of anyone moving the pump but guys move the box forward to keep steering angles correct when they move the axle forward. It keeps the tie rod and drag link from interfering with each other and it keeps them parallel so there's no bump steer.
It was just crazy to see this deer leap all suicidal style off this embankment right in front of us.
