Has anyone ever had any dealings with the power assist draglinks found on 68'-71'D-300s? Are the parts available to rebuild them or can any hyd.cyl.rebuild shop match up parts? What are the controling factors that assure a power assist unit will work on a given application,pump size,port size,ram size or all the above? For instance, the granada's used power assist draglinks w/ram,could it be modified to work or are the ports too small to allow enough fluid for the proper rate of displacement for a larger ram that would be needed on our PWs? Is there a book "everything you ever wanted or needed to know about power steering and assist units"?There are books about brakes and disc conversions.
