Those cylinders are from princess auto 1 1/2 Dia X 12" stroke. I don't know what PSI the power steering pump puts out, but I beleive that cylinders are big enought as the leaverage from the ski pivot to the ball joint is large.  I needed to use 2 cylinders to keep the volume of oil the same for turning left or right.  The big side of one cyl is plumbed to the small side of the other cyl then to one side of the hand pump.  Also, my bombardier is a wide guage steel so I have enough room up front.

I think you should wait to see if I make it to the Cranberry rally. ;D ;D    You know, I can talk the talk, but can I walk the walk?

the old trucker:

  Please correct me if I'm wrong, but could you tie those cylinders into your power steering pump ? Wouldn"t it look after turning those cylinders ?
