Rock-AssaultTM Ram Steering

The Rock-AssaultTM Ram Steering assist kit is the best kit you will find anywhere! Our Toyota kit features a 6" X 1.5" stroke hydraulic ram with high temp inner and outer seals for long life and no leaks. Our specially designed ram features a 3/4" rod that is 50% stronger than other 1/2" rods on the market. For Dana knuckle applications we also offer an 8" stroke version.

Our specially formed, easy to install brackets make installing our kit a breeze. If you have looked at other kits on the market, you will see they either don't include mounts or they just provide generic tabs. Our mounting hardware is specially designed to fit the Toyota axle and High Steer. Once the steering box has been tapped, installation of the ram takes about one hour. Each bracket is formed from heavy-duty 1/4" plate steel for extra strength. Fits 1979 - 1995 Toyota Pickup and 4Runner with solid front axle.

Included with each ram kit:

  • Ram with high temp inner and outer seals
  • Rod ends w/jam nut
  • Ram bracket for axle housing
  • Ram bracket for tie rod
  • (2) Hoses
  • (2) JIC 90 degree elbows
  • Mounting Hardware
  • Instructions w/photos

Kit requires:

  • High Steer crossover steering with 1.25" tie rod
  • Tapped steering box

Application Notes:

If you purchase a tapped steering box from Trail-Gear, the box will include two, 1/4" pipe to JIC fittings on the box. If you will be tapping your own steering box, you will need to purchase a pair of 1/4" to JIC #6 fittings for the steering box. The Trail-Gear part number for this fitting is 130263-1 and they can be purchased here.

Adding a ram assist steering to a truck with the stock power steering pump will slow the steering noticeably. While it will take less steering wheel effort to turn the wheels, but it will take a little longer time to to turn the wheels, especially at low engine rpm's. The larger the ram bore then more noticeable the slowness becomes. If you are planning to use the stock Toyota power steering pump we recommend using the 1.5" ram. We strongly recommend using a high volume/pressure "TC" style pump when using 2" bore rams. On V6 applications, the oil pan may need to be modified or replaced to make room for the ram.
