You will love that steering cylinder. I don't know if I would trust that mount tho. PSC clamp will fit it for a double mount. My .02

Ya I called psc awhile back about ordering some clamps but they weren't very helpful cause it wasn't a psc ram but I need to measure it and order some then thanks for the info.

No need for clamps. Just weld some small flat bar just inside the mounts themselves. This will take the load off of the bolts. I've had zero issues out of mine that way on 44s. The bolts will then just basically be holding the ram down.

OK great thanks for the advice

It's not the bolts I was worried about. The mount is welded to the thin wall cylinder right at the end (seal area). Without it being clamped from the top, I thought it would distort the cylinder and cause a leak. I guess I worried for nothing.

Ordered new shifter today thanks Matt Christian

Did something different with the dash what you think

nice shifter......got any info?

Shifter is badass!
