I used the R&P manual kit from Mustangs Plus. I
had factory PS, but (as has been said) it's not very
accurate, and it leaked a lot. It's also heavy, and
the factory pump robs enough power to be noticeable.
I have to admit I don't much like it. The ad
says, "Manual steering that feels like power". Don't
believe it. It fells good when driving down the road.
Very smooth and precise. But low speed maneuvers do
require some muscle; much more than my Cobra.
If Flaming River ever makes a power rack for this
conversion, I'll be buying one. I'm also looking
closely at this kit called "Steeroids". If I had seen
that a few months sooner, I would have bought it.
