Robert, good news and bad news. I have the bracket and the ram. The ram itself is probably no good but maybe you can work with it??? But I only looked very briefly and it looks like it is mounted using the same bolts as the steering gearbox. This is not going to be as easy as I had hoped. How close are you to needing this? It is going to take several days to a week or more before I can get this done. I say this without looking super closely at it and not knowing if there are going to be other things that may be affected by taking this off, and without knowing what a pain it might be or if I can get everything apart. I have no torch so the bolts have to cooperate because it looks like it's kinda tight up in there.

It was rainy today so maybe tomorrow I can get a better look at it.
