I love the "I can't hear anything" at the end haha.
Glad to see it's all starting to come together.
See didn't want me to edit her out of the video, haha.
So where were we?
Oh, power steering. For this incarnation as you might remember I'm using a 235 p-pump from a C60-6500 Kodiak with a tall deck 366 or 472. I modified it to run canless. To seal the housing, I had to use a bit of Marine-Tex to keep the seeping from occurring and as it is now will have to redrill a feed hole at some point next week to keep the front seal from weeping.
In any case, I mounted the reservoir after putting washers in the supplied mount. The design assumes the can is rigid enough to tension the bolts at torque when in fact the rigidity is directly related to whether the cap is on or not. With the washers in the bolts are in equal tension all the time and the lower threaded holes in the back of the reservoir base are in shear keeping it in place.
Some have had the clam shell mount fail, I wanted to avoid that.

Here's the mount for the reservoir I burned together. A little tube leftover tubing and some modified angle laying around meant free fifty.

Used the tig, but I stopped and started a couple times trying to work my way around which wasn't the cleanest.

Burned in place.

Reservoir in place and hole cut for intake. I had to move the battery back to fit the newer intake so I needed a new inlet for fresh air.

I removed the inlet tubes to make more room for the width of the intake.

The battery tray got cleaned of the factory mounts and I chopped them up to mount it on the inner fender further back.

After a lot of screwing around sealing the pump it finally works well but is now dripping again. Time for oil passage modification.
