Thread: non power rack

Tweet

Well i did a 39 Chevy pickup for a guy with the Mustang II clip and a manual rack (per his request) Only took him about 6 months before he was back wanting the power rack. I drove it with the manual rack and although it was not overly hard to steer the power rack was much more user freindly.

My apologies on the bump steer ,I assumed he had a stock front clip on the truck.....

I guess thats what I get for stayin up late and posting.....

I had a non power R+P steering on my pro street car. It steered fine but it was a light car. I have talked to other guys and was told if the vehicle is light power is not necessary, if its on the heavy side, you may want to use power.

If u have PS now and want to get a better feel for the road maybe a external pressure valve is needed. I just added PS to my MII FE as I could not stand fighting the wheel anymore. It was OK jyst going straight but any parking or turning around etc. was tuff. I had to add some shims to the pressur valve in the sag' pump tas it was to loose . Still could use less pressure to the rack.
