Extreme Steering Ram
Sooner or later if you crawl in the rocks you will probably want hydraulic ram assisted steering. If you can hear your pump whining and crying every time you get to the rough stuff, then the ram is for you. We highly recommend these for rock crawling Broncos with 35" and larger tires. Steering force will increase 100% or more. The ram assists the steering box and pump so that they do not have to work as hard.
Because of vast differences in tie rod and drag link systems, you will need to decide how and where to mount the ram. We will provide some simple guidelines but the rest will be up to you. Therefore some fabrication and welding skills will be required for the installation.
Our Ford 2WD steering systems are available with ram capabilities. This is a good option to have even if you don't get the ram at the same time as your steering system. Having the adaptations on the box will allow for ram mounting at anytime should you decide to upgrade.
The ram kit will include the cylinder, rod ends and mounting tabs. Our rams use a 1 3/4" bore with an 8" stroke and a 3/4" shaft. These cylinders are specifically designed for steering, they are not cheap farm equipment cylinders.
We also offer the ram hose kit which can be utilized with the cylinder and box in various mounting positions. The ram hose kit includes reusable fittings and a high pressure hose which can be routed as required to fit your application.

Q: will the Ram Assist work for steering without the gearbox? just using the ram like a rack and pinion?

A: No, it requires the steering box, to direct the fluid in and out.

Q: I already own a mid 1970 f100 350 power steering box. Can I connect this ram directly to my box or do you do something extra with the box you sell with the kit ?

Answered by ☆ sales - February 2, 2017
A: Your box needs to be ported with extra ports to supply and return fluid to the ram. The box in our 2004 kit has been professionally ported to add ram assist.
