Power Steering?

Ok how hard is the steering when you remove the power steering from a 90 NA?

What all do you remove to remove the Power steering? Everthing but the rack and pinon?

i didn't bother with finding those bolts, i simply looped the return line to the pressusre line coming out of the pump and looped the cooler lines together so i could pull that out.

personally i'm not used to power steering, so it's kind of odd feeling in my 87, but, why would you go out of your way ro remove it?

dan_sama- LOVE ths sig.


You loos about 10 pounds(in my case probably more with the braket) your car feels a lot better and your arms get buffer.

Oh and the steering no longer feels like a 50 year ol hooker.
