hydro-assist cylinder only kits? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

erstowing · 12-04-2009, 04:58 AM

I am looking for a 1.5 x 8 cylinder only kit with hoses, fittings, and brackets for a TJ that will work with the EMS offroad steering box upgrade.

All I have found is a PSC kit with ram and brackets but no hoses cheap(165.00 bucks), and Trail-gear's kit(199.00) with hoses but the ram is only a 6 inch stroke. Not sure if that is long enough for a TJ.

I dont want to run all over town buying hardware and hoses etc.

any ideas?

^X2

my ram ran like 80 bucks, 36 inch hydraulic hoses were like 6 bucks each, and all the fittings were about 10 bucks.

bought 4 generic tab/brackets from ballistic for 2 bucks a pop and i had a hydro assist "kit" for about 120 bucks that you could easily slap a "name" on and sell for 200
