I ditched the standard box as they are a known weak point in the 101 - about the only thing that is. I used a PS box from a Navara, mounted to a plate welding onto the chassis on an angle - strong and simple. The standard Navara Pitman arm picks up the 101's standard drag link with a taper adapter to match that up. A modified series 3 column then goes to a bevel box from a forward control people moved to change the direction of the steering 90 degrees and that meets straight into the PS box. Old steering relay is removed. Good think about it all is it can be taken back to factory manual steering in around 2 hours if needed, so apart from one plate welded in, nothing else is disturbed and the plate isn't in the way of anything else. Engineer liked it too - there's at least 4 x 101's running this style of PS in Australia that I know of.
