I'm have 99 explorer with a 5.0 and running a 2.5" full hydro ram. I am unable to find much info on the stock ps pump.
Double ended ram effective piston area = 3.14 sqin
Stroke = 8in
Volume lock to lock = 25.12 cuin
Orbital size = 7.33 cuin
Turns lock to lock = 3.4
It sees like being able to turn from center to full lock in 1 second would be about right.
Required pump gpm for 1.5 turn per second = 2.9 gpm
Required pump gpm for 2 turn per second = 3.8 gpm
From what I can tell it's a TC style pump, which according to BV steering bible could be in the 2.4-2.8 gpm range, which might be ok, but I've also read it could be a lower output that the jeep specs in the bible.
PSC didn't seem very interested in selling me a pump. They told me i might be able to fit their 1200 series, but that I'll burn them up really fast with full hydro.
What other options are there? I've read a couple inconclusive threads CBR pump has the same mounting configuration as the TC pumps but has higher output flow and pressure.
