New Power Steering System

EZ Electric Power Steering in Holland (http://www.ezpowersteering.nl/) has just completed development of a new speed sensitive, electric power steering system for the Pantera. The OE rack is left intact and an electric assist motor is installed in the column, just above the upper U-joint. The level of assist is adjustable, as is the speed at which the assist begins to fade away. The concept is, you can have full assist at parking lot speeds but by the time you’re going 40 or 50 mph, the assist has all been turned off. If the system fails, you still have your original manual steering.

The cost is 1,500 Euro. They have a Dutch Pantera running around with the prototype system right now and a few more in progress. The company will be seeking German TÜV approval for the system shortly. Anyone who's interested should send an e-mail to Roger Reijngoud at: workshop@ezpowersteering.nl
