major power steering cylinder

Post by fred2873 »

Hi,

Has anybody ever stripped a power steering ram?
I am fitting a power steering system of an old wetherill onto my super but I have oil leaking from where pipe couplings fit the cylinder. there are 2 couplings with a flat face and dowty washer seal. the part that these screw into moves from the outer cylinder wall, so I assume that there is a seal somewhere to stop the power steering fluid leaking between the 2 sections like mine is doing.

just wondered if anybody has a cross section or break down of the steering ram?

thanks

fred
