    Lol... Looks like that truck will need a Dynotrac d60 next. That d44 is maxed out pretty much

    It still works fine. Eventually we will swap in a 60 and make a ram mount for it then as well.

    The orbital mount and hose retainer came out nice as well.

    So much :jellydance: My sys will not be that high dollar. Still trying to find what orbital to run. Planing on a surplus center ram, modded p-pump and a homemade resi and filter.

    I believe they are only 24".. I had to move them down further on the mount since I was getting more flex. (Or buy longer ones, but psh.)

    I love that ram mount ;)

    Well you get what you pay for honestly. If you get the highest quality steering available, you will NEVER have to worry about problems. It was WAY overkill, but worth every dollar. My greatest investment ever TBH. ($1,700) And labor costs (Thanks NwiTACO) :cool:

    Yay we finally an talk about my turd in this thread!! Win :cool:

    I'm on the autozone payroll budget, I have to pick and choose what high dollar parts I get. I do accept donations though :D

    If you are looking for a cheap full hydro set-up look for an old small forklift for the de cylinder and orbital valve.

    It's good. Should of just gone D60 first, however. They shouldn't of ever invented the D44 IMO.
