Our electric power steering conversion has been developed over the past year to enhance our already successful engine driven pump system. The advantages of using an electric powered pump unit are quicker and simpler installation and a much better feel to the steering, giving a more positive feedback. This is due to the combined electronic and hydraulic sensing circuits built into the system, which supply just the right amount of hydraulic pressure needed by the steering rack to manoeuvre the vehicle under all conditions.
There are some other alterations required in order to fit this unit, in that the Dynamo and Voltage Regulator have to be removed and replaced by a high output Alternator. In order to do this the vehicle polarity has to be changed from Positive to Negative Earth. This will entail having to disconnect the electric clock as this is for Positive earth use only, and a check on the fuel pump to ascertain whether it has a later Positive Earth only unit fitted. Most vehicle owners have already done this to allow the fitting of modern radio / cassette / cd players or the installation of electronic ignition systems or alarm systems. It is also suggested that the existing Ammeter could be replaced with a Battery Condition meter (Voltmeter) although this is not essential. If the Ammeter is to be retained then the connections on this unit will have to be reversed, this is done by simply swapping wires from side to side. After installing the Alternator and wiring the Ammeter will only have a small amount of movement.
All our kits include all parts and fittings required along with detailed instructions of how exactly to fit the kit. Please contact us for any further information you may require.
