full hydro. steering questions
« on: Jan 18, 2009, 12:05:13 PM »
what is the best and easiest pump to install on the 22r? i have heard that the trail gear pump SCREAMS.

do you really need a hydro fluid cooler?

and what is a good orbit valve to use... i will mount it in the cab.

i would like to see pics and part number too.. but any info would be great...

I would think the cooler would be benificial, to keep the steering consistant.  A centering valve would be the best, as well as a double ended ram.

the pump isn't that noisy actually.  you will need a cooler and bigger then stock reservoir though.  the kit should be good.  you don't "need" a double ended ram, a single ended with a tie rod would work too.

So TG pumps make noise, others do not. Just depends how hungover the guy in China was when he was putting it together. :rofl2:
