I just wanna know if it's even worth the trouble to put it in. Particularly on an open front end on 33s. Opinions?
The TC pump powers my FJ80 box nicely.100% worth it. I have a track kick pump that is about to get booted for a TC pump, and an FJ80 box. The track kick box got sketchy loose, I thought I was going to break it driving down the road. Confidence is super high with my current set up and steers 37's pretty well.
right? my buddy had 35s on stock axles (broke all the time) and he muscled them with no steering. that was miserable.
My first 'rig' as a dumb kid was a 1985 Toyota with lift and 1/3 tread 35's and manual steering. You can do it if it's a light rig and you are in the dirt, but I agree with the misery if you get it twisted up or on rock Live and learn.right? my buddy had 35s on stock axles (broke all the time) and he muscled them with no steering. that was miserable.
thumbs out!My first 'rig' as a dumb kid was a 1985 Toyota with lift and 1/3 tread 35's and manual steering. You can do it if it's a light rig and you are in the dirt, but I agree with the misery if you get it twisted up or on rock Live and learn.
Good to hear. The trackick pump does it pretty well but you aren't turning if you are hard up against a rock. I do appreciate that feature though, it keeps me from ever worrying about breaking knuckle studs or steering arms etc.The TC pump powers my FJ80 box nicely.
Well, I (or maybe you) jinxed me. Took the Sami to my mom's house for dinner tonight, probably 30 miles round trip. Got home and was fucking around out back running a junk car over and the pump locked up. It killed the engine and the starter could barely turn it over. Took the belt off and kept fucking around. Lol at least it'll be under warranty.Good to hear. The trackick pump does it pretty well but you aren't turning if you are hard up against a rock.

Wan't to sell some I need a couple parts?psc pump and res, tapped kick steer box, hydro assist on toys, hughes 500e cooler.
i have box full of kick pumps somewhere. kick steering on a 1.3 not worth the effort imo.
