Hello folks! im doing an engine build on my ep82 and was wondering do you have to put your power stering pump back on?? I know il prob have heavery steering but im just trying to minimize whats in the engine bay!...
no u can remove it many ppl hav as far as i know u need to leave some fluid in the steering rack so it doesnt seize up and block the holes up with bolts
the power steering rack, without the pump etc attatched, will be heavier than a manual rack as i found out the other night when my adjuster bolt had rattled itself loose
i would fit a non PAS rack if your ditching the pump
no, it will be even heavier than a non PAS starlet still. unless you have humungous guns and enjoy non responsive heavy steering whilst moving, then i wouldnt bother removing it
if your adiment you have to remove it, then id definitely search for a non PAS rack
