Default Hydraulic assist

Hey guys I want to do a hydraulic assist on my 99 xj, I'm running a 5.5" long arm rubicon express lift, 35"/12.50 not sure where to start, I know I'll need to either have my box drilled or buy one ready for it. Just looking for some pointers and maybe if you have links for product info... Not trying to break the back with some super expensive set up. Parts list if anyone has done their own would be great!! Thank you in advance

you'll need:
Ram
Hydraulic hoses
Drilled Steering box or New Steering box meant for Hydro
Upgraded steering(IMO crossover is better)
Mounting brackets,

Now you can go from name brand crap like PSC or piece all the stiff you need from surplus city and local shops for the hydraulic lines.
