u talking PS ram assit 67-68 only?

67-72trucks · 12-09-2013, 01:29 PM

Yes 67-68 4x4 ram assist.

Iron Hauler · 12-09-2013, 01:40 PM

I have one off my old 68 long bed 4x4 but don't have one for a 50th swb

msgross · 12-09-2013, 02:10 PM

I didn't think that 4x4 came with it, might have though.

If you aren't into staying 100% original then a newer steering box would be the way to go.

Nice truck, only 1400 or so short fleet 4x4's made that year. Any more pics?

nobolt · 12-10-2013, 11:42 AM

he Mike,
I don't know if this is exactly what you need......

would like to find a complete ram assist setup. Doing a original restoration. I don't have that many pictures of the truck.

What is different between 2wd and 4wd for ram assist? Is the center link different?

this is still available if it is the right application this one came from a 2wd

budnikguy · 04-19-2014, 12:41 AM

I have one from a 67 2wd 3/4 ton that was equipped with a 327.

qksilver · 04-20-2014, 11:38 PM

I had no idea that the 67 -68 no bump on the frame 4X4 could come with ram assist. I have seen them on 11/4 and up commercial trucks and vans.

I have both a 67 swb 4x4 and a anniversary 68 1/2 burb would like to go with this set up. Anybody have pix? I have gathered quite a few ram sets and a few tie rod bars with holes for a steering sabilixer thinking I could make this set up.

sounds god didn't mean to hijack your thread but if my stuff could work, depending, there would be enough for yours.....

Thanks,
Steve

67-72trucks · 04-21-2014, 12:21 AM

Here are a few pics I found on here. Thanks

**zicc1835** · 04-21-2014, 11:47 AM

looks like a couple of diffrent brackets and the 2wd will fit?

qksilver · 04-22-2014, 06:34 PM

how did I miss this, I checked into about 8 years ago

Thanks,
Steve

qksilver · 04-22-2014, 06:36 PM

we are close............those brackets on the axle seem familiar

Mike,

I may be picking up a 68 Swb 4x4 in a couple weeks. I'm not sure what it has for options yet and if it has a title or not. If it doesn't have a title and its going to be parted, and has PS I will keep you in mind. So, its a long shot, but who knows.
