1.5" Diameter. But you will need to measure how much sweep your High steer arms have to work out the stroke length. This Varies a lot depending on the brand of High Steer Arms.

I know with stock 60 series steering arms and 30 spline Chromo longfield CVs you can use an 8"stroke ram but stock or treated CVs wont cope with this much steering lock. Most people end up with a 7.5" Stroke ram.
