Have the full hydro steering coming off my scout for a regular power steering box. All parts are between 1-2 years old with maybe 4 trips off-road and some pavement time.

Charr-Lynn steering valve 7.56 displacement open center non load reactive.

Surplus center 2x8 ram

2-36" 3/8 hoses jic ends, 1 3/8 hose with jic end and flare on the other to fit gm power steering pump, 1 3/8 hose with jic ends from valve to cooler, and 1 3/8 hose with jic end and 3/8 compression style on the other to fit power steering pump return. Had to modify return pipe a little to make it work. All hoses as steel braided high pressure hydraulic hoses with crimp on ends.

I've got a 2 row can't remember if it's 18 or 24" cooler but I can measure if it matters.

And I've got all the fittings to connect this together plus some extras and a trail gear column for the steering valve with a 3/4 round input that has been ground flat on one side to fit my steering connector.

I paid $300 for the steering valve alone, would like to get $350 for the complete system plus shipping. Would guess shipping to be about $25 almost anywhere.
 
Back up for sale first deal fell through. Need to get this stuff sold so I can buy more parts for my project, make offer.
 
Any chance of pics? Was it on a Dana 60? How many turns lock to lock? I assume single ended ram. 2.5" ram?

Very interested.
 
I'll get some pics of everything tonight. 2x8 single ended ram think it was like 2.5 turns one way and 3 the other but I can't remember for sure. Was fairly fast. And yeah it was on a 60.
 
According to the steering calculator on pirate it should be 3.3 turns one way and 2.3 the other and that seems fairly close. It's been a while since I had it running but I really didn't notice the difference. The only time it ever messed with me was during a corner at speed, took less/more turn to get it back straight.
