hiboy steering
hey guys on my new hiboy the old owner added power steering from a 79 truck and it works great but he left the old hiboy hydralic cylinder on the axle. it doesn't seem to affect the steering but im wondering if I should just take it off or leave it on? thanx

Take it off and put a steering damper on it.
