anyone running a front toyota strait axle in the rear? can you post up pictures, helpful hints. Im sure theres threads already started for this and ill continue to look around.
I was wondering how the gears/parts hold up with it in the rear, and i know on a toyota front strait axle the steerings 6ins side to side but for the rear can you run a 4in ram and just not use the full travel? how is the rear steering set up? do you run 2 power steering pumps or one huge one? how do you control the rear and separate valve or is it tided into the steering wheel? thanks
Yes you can reduce the turning radius to whatever you want.
It can be done either way. A lot of guys just run a little bigger pump.
You control the rear with a separate valve.
how would you properly tie the rear lines into the front lines and would a trail gear pump for a 22re work?
Some orbital valves comes with a outlet port but for the most you use a Y to divert flow to both valves. The TG pump would probably work but not like it very much. Also remember that unless you use a seperate pump for the front and rear, the steering will only want to work 1 valve at a time.
Pick up a lowrider magazine and order up an electric hydro pump. the messicans prices cant be beat. most of them are all made by fennerstone or knockoffs using interchangeable parts. I have seen too mamy folks get a GRAINGER pump for over 600clams, when the same can be had out of the LR mag for about 200bucks. and pumped up if needed.
Electric pumps for the rear are the most common Ive seen.:awesomework:
Ive heard that electric pumps are slow. Never seen one on a rig, The 2 that ive seen were std issue engine powered steering.

So i have a 12volt hydro pump lying out in the shop, so yours saying that i could just wire that in to control the rear ram. sounds like it would work and i already have all the stuff to make that work
