Might cost the same, especially if the pail is going to sit around.  The
80(Q) and 10V 90(Q) use a simple system with a vacuum brake booster and
simple vane pump that doesn't decide to piss out fluid at every full
moon.  NO where near the problems of the "bomb" system found on type
44's, which operate at about 1000psi higher.  The sons 1988 90Q still has
all the original hydraulic hoses, pump and steering rack, dry as a bone
(yes, there is fluid in the system.)  ;-)

This of course is not true if the listers fleet includes a type 44, then
a 5 gal. pail of the cheaper replacements is in order.
