@Riley posted:Had my eye on Scott's power steering kit for a while, but every time I wanted to buy it, something else came up that took priority... but finally got it and installed it this weekend. I will say that it took me a lot longer than the 3 hours I think has been mentioned to install... it was more than double for me. Once I was done bending upside down and got it all installed, it worked like a charm. No longer is it annoying backing out of my garage and driveway, let alone having to maneuver in and out of parking lots. The ability to adjust the resistance on the fly is awesome, but the big bonus which I hadn't read mentioned was how much more secure my whole steering column is now. He adds a reinforcement that completely firms up the whole thing. That alone was worth a couple hundred bucks.
Fitment is definitely snug, but it works. Picture here looks like it's blocking the clutch pedal, but it doesn't at all. Don't even notice it down there when I'm driving. Can't wait to get the car in the canyons now! Thanks, and for anybody on the fence, I can't recommend it enough.
Re-reading this has raised my curiosity? I always like to read the installation instructions that a manufacturer supplies with the product before I buy it.
SAAC doesn't have that offered on their web page. Would it be a big deal to scan it and post it here?
Specifically I'd like to see what they tell you to do with attaching the front part of the column to the EPS unit?
Does he tell you to cut that and supplies a coupler fitting to tie them together or does he supply a complete steering shaft and you need to reinstall your steering wheel and ignition switch to it?
The back end with the u-joint and the DD shaft is obvious (I think) from what I see of the entire unit.
The steering wheel side I can't see and his posted picture of that end doesn't show the detail of what needs to be done there.
Also, you need to install those two new studs? Those are bolts dropped in from the top?
