Default steering actuator

I have 89 scarab excel with imco hydraulic ext. assist on it, my steering actuator has a lot of play in it where the main bolt is that holds steering cable. (1/2" to 3/4") Im thinking I need to find new actuator, havent been able to locate one with external ports for my hydraulic assist. If anyone knows part #s or rebiuld kits I would really appreciate it. Thanks again Justin

I just changed my control valve on my Saginaw steering system with Imco assist steering rams. I had power steering fluid leaking out of the pivot on the valve. The control valve is not modified, it is the same for a alpha and a bravo drive. Imco tech support said no modifications needed. Works great
