I just got the std stillen oil kit- I noticed when I tracked power steering fluid got extremely hot- so not real keen about moving factory power steer cooler BEHIND stillen oil cooler- was thinking getting longer rubber hose and moving factory steering cooler all the way over to the other side- See any problems with this approach?? I don't thing added rubber line lenght would cause a problem

No, that shouldn't cause any issues.
