Looks like I got this figured out....
This is a Eaton BB type power steering unit... I was able to order a seal kit and new regulator valve to reduce the op pressure to 1500 psi. I talked with the guys over at PSC and they said 1600 psi to my steering box (78-79 Ford) max or the sector shaft seals will leak, so thats why I went with the 1500psi reg.

Well it seems that I'm having a bit of trouble trying to find what application these were used and even unsure if it was even a Dodge option for 1996.
I want to use this pump on my 69 Ford Crew Cab project that I'm currently setting up for hydroboost... does anyone have any info on exactly what application this pump originates?

Drive haft will be here next week.... these guys over at High Angle Driveline have taken that agricultural CV (which does not survive sustained high speed applications) and performed (what Jess describes as) a little (or was it major) brain surgery. The net result is improved lubrication and durability for street use!
Here she is next to your standard 1 ton 1350 series CV...

I was just looking back on this thread, and the rear brake conversion on this caught my eye. Those caliper brakets that you have, are those the same as the ones for the D60 or are they specific for the D80? Also what are use useing for pads, rotors and calipers? Awesome looking build though. I cannot wait to see what it looks like when it is totally finished.

Ok, been following this thread for a while now and you're rockin this thing. I'm like everyone else and waiting till this thing is completed just to see the final product.
Question on the rubber issolator mounts: How thick are they and what sized studs? Are the studs on both sides? What's they cost and where can I get some?
Thanks and again - GREAT WORK!!!

I just read through every page of this build... It is completely awesome.
I'v wanted to do this for a couple years now. Im glad that its coming together so nicely, slowly, but nicely. And its gonna make one heck of a truck, not only an awesome truck but a reliable, well built one.
Keep it going and
Good Luck
