Default Bruder CAT 320

Hey guys, I've started my conversion. I've got my tracks done and the turntable gear is installed. I originally wanted to do servo screw drives and I cut the arms for the servos to go in. I recently changed my mind and I'm going with hydraulics now. I've filled in the holes with body fill and everything is sanded. I'm just looking for opinions on how I should make and install cylinder mounts. Also if anyone can help me with the installation of the hydraulic system it would be greatly appreciated. Sorry guys I will get pics up as soon as I can. Thanks in advance
