Is the ram A 1.5" or A 2"? The only reason I ask is I have A 2" on my other rig, and on the road there is A slight steering lag, but I can turn lock to lock with one finger at a standstill with 42" pitbulls I have heard that the 1.5s are more road friendly but allitle less output. Keep the pics coming

On A quick side note. I wouldnt recomend welding the ram to the diff cover, I made A 1/4" rockring for my 60 front, and it tore 2 bolts out of the housing and bent it to heck There is allot of preasure there

I didn't find anywhere where you said either way so I apologize if you did, but what did you use for your power steering box and power brake master xylinder and booster? I need a little advice on doing my truck and I want to do it when I do my motor swap in a month or so. Thanks!

its all chevy parts im running a sb 350 but im not running a booster the truck stops just find but i did upgrade to a dual bowl master cylinder that thread is on here some where... also it is a 2" ram and i do plan on not mounting it to the diff cover.. i think im going to go off my spring perch instead but still thinking about it...

That is where mine is mounted on my Chevy, no problems in 2 years running it that way.

That will work W/O taring things apart that I had. Your going to love the ram steering you can whip the wheel with A couple of fingers On my most current setup im running H/B hydro setup and A cooler, and my biggest problem is getting the air out from the system. Im still working on that one Also on POR they talked about running some hydraulic oil more like AW46, thats what I run in my setup, its hydraulic oil for hydraulic systems. Im not atall A hydraulic guy, but thats what those systems run
