First off this is my first post here in the tech section. So howdy :wave: . While I found a TON of good info on upgrading steering boxes I couldn't find an answer to this exact question.
I pulled my steering box yesterday and in the process broke one bolt and upon getting it out found a big crack between the lower mounting bolts. Time for a replacement. I'm looking at putting one from an 00 into my 95. I've searched all over and from what I can find the box is the same but they changed the fittings somewhere along the line.
Does anybody know on which end of the hoses those fitting changes were made? If it's on the steering box side no problem I'm getting new hoses anyway, but if it's on the side that goes into the resivoir or the pump then I might have a problem.
If the change is on the pump side then can I just use a new hose for a 95 on the 00 box? Since I'm getting the box from a pick and pull I want to try and get everything I'll need on the first trip. Thanks.
