Default Borgeson PS Kit

I was at the SEMA show in Vegas last week. I ran across a full power steering kit from Borgeson. PIcs are in my Steering Album. I believe he said the box is a 14:1 ratio. The casting is thicker to prevent the sector shaft from hogging it out from play.

I have their dodge box and shaft in my 2500 and it has awesome steering response. Only 3 turns lock to lock. Only thing about the box is that you need a better pump to go along with it. Even with a new reman'd pump, the steering can be rock solid at times when the truck is on pavement and at a stand still.

Steep all at once but you're getting a complete kit for that price. Box, pump, lines, shaft.

The complete kits are for diesels...... will they also work on the gas engines? (pump mounting would be my main concern.)

I bought a PSC pump that is supposed to be for a diesel. According to the one article I read, it was the same model they put on their V10. It looks like they all mount the same.

The pump on the diesels are attached some how to the brake booster, so that would be somewhat of a concern though.

Do the diesels use hydra boost instead of vacuum assist? Might have to get creative with the lines in that case.... (although, I wouldn't mind switching over to hydraboost......)
