Ayuh,..... Each system varies, so that info would come from the maker of whatever system you decide on,......

Assuming your installing the standard VP hydraulic steering, and not full hydraulic like what is found on performance boats, the cylinder attaches to the transom plate. Would be attached to the 2 bolt pins see in top left of pic
