Just a little information for anyone planning to run the complete AGR steering system with rock ram on their trucks. I installed their super pump, the steering box, and the rock ram on my truck and it worked amazing. It drove better than it ever had and the steering was tight and responsive. But after about two weeks of running the setup I noticed the pump leaking and losing fluid. I called AGR and they sent a new pump out right away. I replace the pump and ran it for another 3 weeks until a woman pulled right out in front of me and I had to lock up the brakes. On the hour long ride home I noticed I was losing my power steering and by the time I got it home and checked it it was completly empty. So while trying to move the truck around at the shop and turning it manually (one foot on the door and both hands pulling down on the wheel lol) I broke the shaft inside the steering box. I parked the truck since I needed to go off to a job. I contacted the same guy at AGR and told him what was happening. He told me that what could be happening was the hyrdo boost system not allowing the extra fluid that the super pump pushes to continue through the system and forcing it back out the shaft seal. He gave me some info for a guy out in cali who specializes in boring the stock hydro boost system to accept to larger volume of fluid its moving. So this week the parts are being shipped out and we shall see how it works out. Sorry for the long post just thought some may be interested in it if they plan on running this system.
