TOY: Hydraulic assist steering

[ThaJokaWld@xxxxxxx]

I was talking to my local parts guy (aka my dad) about doing hydraulic assist 
steering on my truck, using an AGR modified box, high volume pump, and ram.  
He mentioned that early model ford pickups(f150-f350) and mustangs (early 
70's) had hydraulic assist steering using an actator valve mounted in place 
of the tie rod end, and a hydralic ram, and used this instead of conventional 
power steering.  The fact that a remanufacured actuator and ram are only $300 
for the pair, plus a higher volume pump and new power steering lines(have to 
tee off the pressure and return side of the line for the ram and actuator) 
and two short hydraulic hoses to go from the actuator to the ram, I'm 
thinking this whole mess would only cost about $600 to do.  Vs. the $1300 All 
Pro kit this looks rather attractive.  Any comments?
Thanks
