Ive Got Powersteering!!!!!!!!!!

I used a fuel hose for the low pressure hose.


lemme say its awsome!!!


I could actually move it around the drive way and it was way more touchy and it wasent going all over the road.

im gonna go for the ultimate test tommorow.

on the highway. my dads gonna drive.

if it fails there or a hose breaks and its going grriiinndd all the way home.

ill put in another.!! its to awsome!!!!!!


forgot to add. its a 2nd or a 3rd gen pump.

I dunno the difference but its great!

if your an everyday driver I say go with powersteering!

Every time I put a belt on my power steering it over flown the fluid out of the cap.


I look forward to the day when that is the most important thing I have to fix on my car.......

i dont like it without powersteering. way to much play without.

I would only take mine off if I was racing or drifting or any like autocross (i dont just a saying)because you would have to feel the road.

if you have a 13b fuel injected and go to a carb. then you can feel the carberator when you hit the gas. its a wire. would you go back to carb or would you stay fuel injected.

its the simple things like that

i don't think there's reduced play, you just can't feel it, because there must be almost resistance when turning the wheel.

SA's have to be different, because turning at slow speeds without powersteering is a cinch. I mean, very little difference between my car and my moms station wagon (with p/s).

or maybe i'm just wicked jacked.
