[QUOTE="Welderd, post: 33942, member: 144"] no dice so far cracked the lines and got it as good as I could for left it's 2 steps forward and one back going left - meaning I can turn the wheel 15 degrees and then it stops and wants to go right. I can turn left by turning a little, letting off then turning again. I timed it 1 min 30 to go left with engine off 5seconds to go right with engine off during the 25 turns lock to lock I had a funnel in the reservoir with a little fluid in it that I could see. It went up and down slightly but the level never went down. FYI double ended ram, gm pump in psc can to an enlarged toyota reservoir, big cooler mounted to radiator, $50 forklift orbital that should give me 3 turns lock to lock, open center, non load reactive. when turning left the wheel wants to go right like there's suction or something going on. At what point do I give up and try another orbital? the left and right lines are probably 10ft each supply line is a good 10ft return lines is closer to 15ft reservoir is the highest point in the system and I sealed the cap but am bleeding with it off I'm trying to be patient because of all the lines and ups and downs in them but it's been 2 days of this and it's not getting better even slightly. I'm gonna change left and right now and see if it's hard to go right also i disconnected the tires from the ram so it's just the ram right now, no resistance [/QUOTE]
