Ok, so I'm going through my steering assist build. I've got the servo mounted and am mocking up where I want to put the ram. Its the same psc kit as cattlerepairman. I've got two options: Mount the ram on a bigger plate welded to the differential, with an offset on it to keep it centered...

HN6, you did a pretty nice hefty job of putting that bottom plate on there for sure. I was wondering, if a person were feeling a little lazier, if you could just mount the plate across the bottoms of the U-bolts that hold the springs on. It'd be 8 pretty big bolts.... plus I believe there are...

Ok, now I think I understand the garrison unit. What a strange unit. It basically replaces the drag link and is pressure sensitive, diverting hydraulic pressure to an assist ram when the pitman arm pushes on it. When you let go of the wheel, the pressure on it will reduce and allow the steering...

This is the basic diagram they have on their site. Instead of the rack and pinion though, that would be your steering box. Then the hydraulic lines would go to your assist ram. They sell nice little spline adapters on their site as well, so the steering shaft mods would be pretty easy. If you...

After looking at power steering stuff for a while. I noticed one option that might be worth looking into. It's called a power steering servo. It's the same rotary valve that you would find in your normal powers steering box, but a stand alone version. You can simply throw it in your steering...

I believe it depends on the system. At some point, I read that you still can turn some, with difficulty, with a good ram setup like the PSC system above. Eh, not convinced in theory, but I haven't' had time to check on how an orbital valve actually works. One thing I do like about this system...

I'm considering the style of system you did over the other traditional power steering systems out there. 3500 bucks and all that work seems a bit much. Plus all the downtime on the truck. it looks like you could build your setup in parallel, leaving most of the original components in place in...
