Never had a problem with Toyota IFS boxes. If you are going hy-steer you will have to change the box with one where the pitman goes side to side not forward and back unless you want to do some type of bell crank set-up.

Toyota IFS steering boxes are definitely the best to use. Other options are out there, but IFS boxes can be found for the cheapest and can be easily adapted to run hydro assist.

Same as IFS trucks and 4runners, 86-95.

If you must buy a new pretapped box w/ hydro kit, PSC sells a great kit.  :yesnod:
