Pump is on the passenger side, easy to get to. No cutting needed as the pump mounts with a dif bracket on the diesel and there isn’t an air box bracket in the way of the adjuster. I didn’t even have to remove my bumper or winch to install the cooler.
Good deal. Thank you. How much fluid did you end up having to put back in? I want to make sure I have enough on hand before I get started.Pump is on the passenger side, easy to get to.

That was actually the most painful part for me, spending 70+ bucks in fluid. My local advance had the chf or whatever in the green bottle by the quart and with the cooler and pretty much fully drained it took one and a half quarts once all the bubbles got worked out.
I've got 40s sitting in the garage waiting for axles to show up. I know it won't be nearly as good as the PSC system that was on my JK but I'm hoping it's better than nothing at all. Thanks again for the good info.
You’re welcome!
I've had the Apex steering booter on my Jeep for several offroad trips and roughly 5000 miles. It does improve the steering a little bit in everyday driving scenarios around town and in parking lots. When locked it didn't make any difference turning a set of 37" tires without moving. Upgraded to PSC because the Apex Steering booster didn't meet my needs and there is no comparison between the two. Yes this is a cheap option to boost the OE steering, but IMO not worth the money. Best to save the pennies and go PSC.
thanks for the update. Was very close to pulling the trigger - still no PSC for diesels
I had the Apex kit still in the box but sent it back to Northridge after I decided I needed hydro assist for the 40s. I called Redneck Ram and am going that route for my diesel. I was going to add the Apex kit to the Redneck Ram kit but was told it wasn't necessary. We'll see. If I have problems I'll add it in later.
I just shipped one back to Northridge last week but I don't even see that part on their website now.
Just a guess on my part but maybe they are making it smaller. There have been some people who have had a challenge getting it between their winch and radiator.
*Sigh. Go figure. I’m going to snag one as soon as they’re released.
