Need help with orbital valve

I'd like to know what orbital valve i need, i am running a toyota front end, with a delton hyrodrolic single ended ram 2in bore 6in stroke. What would be the best orbital valve for my set up for cheap. Which one should i get from a tractor supply place and have the best lock to lock steering?

I would say a 7.4 cu in steering valve would be my recommendation.
should be good for around 3 turns lock to lock , maybe a bit less.

is a 7.4 something i could put in any orbital valve or is there a certain orbital valve that has a 7.4 in it?

what he means is an orbital that has a 7.4 cu inch rating.

If you are running bobby long chromos you can get about 7 1/2" of ram to work on a Toyota axle. It's WAY better than stock steering radius.
Dont forget: make sure that the steering valve is Open Center!

thanks for the help is there a certain brand of orbital valve? Keep in mind that i am still on toyota axels and i have longs as well. The reason i need all this information is so that when i am buying i know what to get.
