I'm going to be fitting power steering to my Sammy, I'll be using a Jimny steering box, but as the Sammy is a G13B engine, I'm guessing that the whole early Jimny set up will be a pretty straight forward fit and simpler than converting Vit pipes, or are they pretty much the same, I've already done the double pulley, so ready to go.
I'll also be fitting high steer at the same time, SPOA and RUF, has this caused anyone any problems.

Re: Power steering
The high steer won't cause any problems with running PS.
I'm not too familiar with fitting it to a G13 as it was just a bonus of fitting my G16 when I converted but if the holes are there I would just go for a Vitara pump as that's what's commonly used.
The pipework can be easily shortened with a hydraulic grade pipe coupling and putting a little twist in it with a bit of heat applied.
