Our ram was about a 10" stroke. 1.5" bore. We had nice black carpet ramps at GTR... we took them off for Kettering and NewJersey because they were heavy and ineffective. We also added a braking mechanism to it in the offseason to further dampen any oscillations. basically a piece of aluminum angle passing through aluminum square tube with a ram to pin it.
