Ram Assist Components

The Ram Assist Components category gathers all the brackets, and mounting parts needed to install or upgrade to a hydraulic ram-assist steering system on 4×4 rigs-especially useful for lifted Jeeps, oversized-tire builds, or heavy-duty off-road setups that demand more steering power and strength.To ensure your system is set up for maximum performance and proper travel, please refer to our Instruction Manuals.

What’s Included

• Ram-mounting brackets for tie-rods – Heavy-duty clamping brackets designed to bolt onto upgraded steering bars (e.g., 1 5/8" or 42 mm tie-rod tubes) to mount the assist-ram securely.

• Axle-housing bracket kits – Steel brackets that mount the axle-side of the ram to Jeep JL Wrangler, JT Gladiator and JK Wrangler axle housings, providing a solid anchor point at the axle-housing to allow proper function of the assist ram.

• Relocation / geometry correction brackets (for high-steer / trac-bar relocation) – Brackets that help correct trac-bar geometry and maintain proper steering/travel, often used alongside high-steer conversions or lifted suspension.

Why Ram Assist Components Matter

• Handle heavier loads and larger tires – On rigs with oversized tires or added off-road stress, stock steering can struggle. A ram-assist delivers the extra steering force needed to maneuver-especially under load or on extreme off-road terrain.

• Reduce steering effort during off-road / rock-crawling – Hydraulic assist reduces the manual effort required to turn the wheels when steering heavy tires or negotiating tough terrain, improving control and reducing driver fatigue.

• Reinforce steering system strength – Ram-assist components are designed for high loads, and when combined with upgraded tie-rods/drag-links or heavy-duty steering kits, they improve durability and reliability under stress.

Who Should Use Ram Assist Components

This category makes sense for builders and owners who:

• Run large tires (37"+), and find themselves in extreme situations off-road.

• Use their vehicle for serious off-road, rock-crawling, overlanding, or heavy terrain driving, where steering demands are high and regular components may not hold up.

• Want an easy solution for installing RAM Assist onto their vehicle that does not involve complex fabrication.

• Plan for long-term durability and strength- especially useful for rigs that see frequent off-road abuse or heavy-duty use. These components and professional installation services can be sourced through our Dealer Locator.

What to Keep in Mind

• Before installing a ram-assist, check fitment carefully: tie-rod/drag-link tube diameter, axle-housing clearance, and steering-geometry changes—especially if you’ve lifted or modified the front end.

• Even with a ram-assist system, proper steering alignment, suspension travel checks, and bump-stop configuration remain critical to avoid binding, premature wear, or unsafe handling.

• Ram-assist systems add mechanical complexity- installation must be done carefully, hardware torqued properly, and periodically inspected for wear, leaks, or mounting integrity.

• A ram-assist works best when paired with upgraded steering components (heavy-duty tie rods, drag links, joints) that can handle the increased loads.
