Mine is not twitchy at all. If anything its more stable. My wife drove my jeep when we moved from Mississippi to Utah and she said it drove better than it ever has.
I think the smaller 1.5 ram is a bit quicker than the 1.75. If I remember right.
I put a new pump on mine when I installed it and the only thing I notice is the lag trying to turn lock to lock really fast while creeping along. Like trying to park. Sitting still with tire against a tree it will push it away from tree.
Otherwise its been great.

I had the PSC assist with stock pump and thought it lagged when turning side to side. I added their pump and love it. i can move boulders just by turning the wheel---effortless.
On road, takes a bit to get used to but once you figure it out, it is the best. I run 37s and find the addition of the pump was key to proper operation. Good luck

I went the DIY route. 1.5" bore ram, 15" dual pass cooler, homebuilt hydraulic lines, mounting hardware and ports came to less than $300. Still running the stock pump and reservoir. It has a tiny bit of lag at slow speeds, like turning into a parking spot, but you get used to it within a day. Best thing I have done to this jeep so far.
It helps keep the cost down when you can do your own welding.

We're running PSC 1.75 ram,PSC high volume pump kit,rebuilt our steer gear,tapped the ports myself,running a cooler works like a dream,especially when aired down on 37's
