Highboy power steering conversion

Would someone have any pics using a 4 bolt box did you box the frame? Looks like holes line up just enlarge them, but frame looks weak.

Here are some pics on my '75 highboy. The PO installed plate, but it looks straight forward.

There are sleeves between the plate and the frame to strengthen.

Just make sure to verify the pitman arm rotation carefully. Mine is really tight on the top of the pitman arm to the bottom of the frame.
