Hydro Assist Options

Recieved my PSC kit in the mail last week(Big thanks to ClemsonKrawler). The box was super heavy which reminded me of that saying from jurassic park, "Are they heavy? Yeah.. Then they're expensive..." Hopefully that weight translates into good quality :)

Im for sure installing everything but the ram this weekend. The ram part im going to need help with and my friend is not sure he can help this weekend, or the next :'( I wont know if he can help or not until friday.
I was all set to just setup the ram myself but he talked about how critical it is to set it up exactly right so i got worried and decided i better wait for help.

Along those lines im wondering if anyone knows of a shop that sells a ram assist mounting tower. I have a ford dana 60 and my plan is to weld some type of tower on the passenger side of the tube, then mount my ram on that and attach it to the tie rod. I was just at midnight 4x4 on monday and completely forgot to ask. Does that seem like something he may have?
 
If you are running stock Ford knuckles I would suggest to not run your assist to your high steer set up. The upper half of the ford knuckles can be weak and have a history of snapping off when run hard. I ran my assist to the stock TRE hole on the knuckle and built a bash guard for it. This put the majority of the stress on the strongest part of the knuckle and I never had a failure. Of course, this will be harder to do if you are still running leaf springs.
