Product Description
The PSC SC2218K Double Ended XD Steering Cylinder Kit is engineered for extreme off-road vehicles running full hydraulic steering systems. Built for maximum steering force and durability, this heavy-duty cylinder features a massive 2.5" bore, 8.75" stroke, and 1.50" diameter rod designed to withstand the brutal forces generated by large off-road tires, rock crawling, and competition rigs. Designed specifically for full hydro steering systems, the SC2218K cylinder provides smooth, powerful steering control for vehicles running oversized tires and heavy front axle loads. The double-ended design delivers equal steering force in both directions while the oversized rod increases strength and resistance to bending under extreme load. PSC Steering Components manufactures this XD series cylinder using premium seals, precision machined components, and high-strength materials to ensure reliability in the harshest environments including rock crawling, mud racing, and ultra-4 competition vehicles.
