Replaced steering box with a fancy red one. I should've just increased caster, though I don't know how wedge type axle shims would affect the front pinion angle. It seems like the ball joint shims were maxed out on caster.

Might have dropped an o ring down a hole on the box. The steering seems slightly stickier going one side than the other. Doesn't seem to be leaking. What I'm worried about is the possibility of power steering lines popping off. I've read rumors of the fittings not being good. Should I just buy new OEM ones or are there better aftermarket ones?

Eventually I'll replace the CPS and see if that #8 injector code goes away. Got a f4tz-12k073-c black with purple O ring.

Does it make sense to run the 25hp tow tune when unloaded to help the 4R100 last longer? Seems like the stock tune locks more often than any of the other tunes, but it's super slow and much quieter.
