Default power steering temp

So here soon im gunna have to replace my power steering box(leaky) and decided i might as well replace the pump, the shaft, do the steering brace, the rocksolid fix, and rebuild my front end with splicer. gunna go with a good quality box from redhead and i for get the name of the company im getting the steering shaft and brace from. But my question is since im going to be doing all this, should i go ahead and toss in a power steering temp gauge? I would just do a normal temp gauge because im guessing a power steering one is hard to come by.. But i like to monitor temps. Whats a safe temp? I run honday power steering fluid in my truck (synthetic and approved for our trucks).

Unless you're doing road course racing, you dont need it.
