Hydro assist diff mounts

I got the same thing and one of these
itempic1.php


I am trying to decide how to mount mine as well. I was thinking about getting a diff cover from DIY4x but my tie rod is so thick that I dont think his will work. My tierod is 2inch 1/2 wall and just barely clears the stock cover. If you can run one, I would get this.

or you could use his tab mount

so i looked and talked to kert but im not sure that will work because my clearence is super tight like 1/8" max. plus its tight on the u-bolts and the end c forging. so the options are
1. mount the ram at the pass side of pumkin and the mount to tierod. this would be above the tierod. this requiring a new diff cover($100 more)
2. send back ram and get a round bodies rams such ashttp://www.surpluscenter.com/item.asp?UID=2007122612215704&item=943-08&catname=hydraulic

which i have heard bad news about and then possible be able to use ram option such as above(no idea on custom work )
 
I have the DIY diff cover and a 1.75 tie rod and it clears, close but it clears it
