Random INput.....

BMW and others are using full electric power steering with no hydraulics.

I think the gear selected assist is the best, You already have the reverse light switch just attach a second switch for 1st gear, even an automatic would work with it... You could add a RPM switch to prevent it from activating if the RPM's were too high to save the clutch.

A dirt track pump would be a better choice than the ford or use a Jeep wrangler pump, it has a remote tank as well and its tiny... They also sell very lightweight and strong steering racks.

Dodge trucks have a electric clutch on the fan.... And its whomper...
