I have a memory loss, can't remember that type of fluid I am supposed to use in the hydraulic steering set up in the old Dr. Dirt Jeep.
Suggestions?

Re: Fluid Type for Hydraulic Steering?
I am sure you already have an answer to this. If I remember correctly, you have a full hydraulic ram system. From what I have read that you want to use Swepco power steering fluid or Chevy fluid PN: 89021182. It takes a lot for these fluids to foam up. Again, this is only what I have read, I don't have any practical experience with these products.
I hope this helps,
Larry
