stuck Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Hi all, Quick question, would you expect the power steering pump on a RRC to be able to cope with the additional steering load imposed on it by 12.5" wide Creepy crawlers? Power steering was fine before lift, am I just overloading the pump? Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 It is probably asking a bit much, but plenty of people run standard pumps / boxes with tyres that wide. Dry turns may be a bit of hard work though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_944 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Will it actually do any harm to the pump though?? I notice that on mine, bit more difficult to turn when stood still and mines got wider tires. Suppose it might just end up burning it out quicker is it??
