Go Toyota -- outboard mounted and a lot of support on the web for future modifications (in case you want to run hydro-steer)

I'm using a '94 Explorer box on mine inside the frame but it's with the V6. I'm doing a V8 conversion now and there isn't quite enough room for the remote oil filter kit I'm going to use. Like they said use a steering box on the outside of the frame. For me, I'm currently modifying my frame in an attempt to gain enough clearance for the filter kit.

You sure can. The only thing you have to do is adapt the high pressure hose/line to match with the Toyota box.

steering pump/box

Oh , im having trouble with it it seems to have to much pressure in it cuz, when i start the engine it start turning the wheels like crazy cant stop it. really strong :S .

So maybe the box its fkd up, gaskets or dunno.

any ideas?

maybe theres still air in the system - which usually leads to a violent, jittering steering wheel.
