Power steering

(1/1)

FATnLOW:
Any one running power rack and pinion???  if so what is your setup?

TFoch:
Mine is not power steering.  The set up I have is a TCI front end with a rack behind the crossmember, a Dodge Omni one I believe.

themoose:
Like Tom I'm using a Dodge Omni rack behind the front member  but mine is a power rack with a Delco pump. The front suspension is Kugel.

madmike3434:
my 35 coupe has a kugel with Omni rack, NO power assist.  Not needed even with 60 series tires.

My 35 phaeton has a cricket rack about 5 turns lock to lock on JAG XKE ifs, way to slow.  Have another OMNI rack going to swap in place.

Unless you have a really heavy car the Omni rack is sufficient.

FATnLOW:

Searching for all parts to convert to power rack...wanting to get the smallest power steering pump,found one that you can order 1200 psi or 850 psi....had a question on required or acceptable pressure on the Omni power rack...would the 850 psi pump be compatible with the Omni rack...rather than using the pressure proportional valve????
