I think he may be hiding from the rain :D
John if you get restless could you drive up to Waldorf Mine and Lake Edith campground for me and tell me if you see any elk? ;)
You could also look at 39.5" TSLs, they run small.
I am a little confused. What exactly is a saginaw pump. I thought that is what I have. It is the black , pear shaped pump from 87+ ford truck v8s? For hydro assist, I should just need the cylinder, hoses, tabs, an additional resevoir, and to drill and tap my box. Correct?
the saginaw pump came from ford van v8s. or even the 300 for that matter. you have a serp. set up on your 302 so you'll want the power steering pump from lets just say a 1995 van with a 302. you'll also need the ac and power steering pump bracket from that year van. go check out Gordons, the last time i was out there i was 4 or 5 Ford v8 vans with the pumps and brackets still in them.

If your pump looks like the one in William_ace's photo it is a saginaw. On my 1990 302 I did not have a saginaw. I swapped to a saginaw. I just removed my old pulley and put it on the new pump. Bolted right up. Had to get a different hose.
The saginaw is not required for hydro-assist, but it is generally a more beefy higher flowing pump. If your old pump goes out, I would make sure to have a saginaw.
Oddly enough, my thread on this has a linke to a post by you on the part number, so yes, I would say you have a saginaw pump. So yes, get a cylinder, tap your steering box, hook up hoses and add some sort of reservoir. If it does not turn, swap the hoses.
I have a saginaw pump.
But I still would want an external resevoir correct?
yes you would i believe PSC sells just the can
more importantly than the resevior you will need to add a cooler and use good fluid
The oil cooler off a 90's Ford Esploder is a skinny stacked plate design that is about a square foot and has 3/8 hose barbs on it. I plan on putting one on Pigpen as soon as Clarke replaces the one I gave him and I put my hydro assist on.
speedway sells an aluminum reservoir can for like 20
I have traded a few emails with Lance at PSC and I should be ordering it tomorrow and have it all ready to go by Clayton. My box probably needs a rebuild, as well as a ClarkeFab drill and tap.
I replaced a front shackle damaged from K rocks tonight to get rid of the gangsta lean, then took it out for a spin. She did 50 on some backroads:D
I have to tear into the tires/rims because 2 won't hold air overnight. I would just as soon put new bigger tires on at that point though. I might try out Krebs' 38s or spring for new tires.
A little 10.25 TLC is in order this weekend and then it will be ready for Alto.
