save all the head aches and call jeremy at cust diff. believe me it can be a nite mare if you have one bad used part in there .


and i will tell you jermey's price might seem high but i can say i could have bought two of his kits for what i have spent trouble shooting mine the first time . and do not take it to a hydralic shop they will ream you hard.  


i'm talking 600. + to tell me i had dirt in the orbital valve.


i run a gm saginaw pump get the back off of a safari van, or just by a new one 49.00 at oriely's  they use a remote reservoir then just go pick on up at the junk yard a bottle  


 


the orbital valve you can buy them in sikeston mo at any tractor salvage yard , it a charlyn and the steering column that attaches to the valve .  your looking to spend 100-150. for those parts


the cylinder pick up a 2x8 big chief at bucheits about 50-70.00  or any farm cylinder. we run a 2x8 on three of our trucks or you may try a       2  1/2  x 8  that is what i'm going to as long as you have enough fluid  (air is bad)


and pick up a small tranny cooler to but on the return side of the pump.   50-70  


 


have some lines made your looking at about 50-100.00


ok so add that up and you can just about by a complete kit


anywhere from 600-900.00 from jeremy   573 483 3343


just to let you know i have about 1200.00 +


four pumps    ( 2- fords melted them 2- chevy's )


two orbital valves


buying the wrong lines from the farm store


and a 700.00 bill from a hydraulic shop (rape)
