Snagger Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 http://www.heystee-automotive.com/ It's a very expensive kit, and the PAS pump is very vulnerable unless you can get a an alternator bracket with pump mounting from a 19J or Def 200Tdi. I have never tried one, but I have been told it has a bit more lag than the normal LR power steering systems. It does have the huge advantages of not requiring any significant chassis mods, and retaining the original steering gear, replacing only the drag link, so you don't have to worry about complex work or losing vehicle identity points. It also behaves just like the standard steering if hydraulic power is lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
