Adding Power Steering

Post by Beach Bum »

if I can source the doner bits (anyone know what this consists off) how easy is it to convert a standard van to power steering for a good mechanic. Is it just a bolt on exercise.

what sort of money will I be paying for the bits

seriously though getting hold of a rhd power steering rack in next to impossible.your talking hundreds if you can get one.there is normally a belt driven pump on the engine.but andy simpson has got around this using an electric pump off a saxo iirc...
