Fitting PAS

[missvdubluv]

Ok, just a quickie....

How difficult and expensive is it to fit PAS? Bearing in mind I have already got the rack, but the hoses are split!

Thanx Guys

so do you have PAS fitted to your car and the pipes are split

or do you just have a PAS rack lying in your garage with split pipes?

[missvdubluv]

Well you might have read that I wrote my car off last week, that car had PAS, the rack is fine, but the hoses are split, I am thinking of buying another mk2, have been offered one, but it has no PAS (which I really need!), so was thinking if its not a hard job I would swap over the rack from my old car into the new one!

you need all of this from the donor:-

Rack
steering column link piece (2 UJ's etc)
Resevoir
Resevoir bracket
Oil lines
Pump and 3 brackets (one which bolts on top of water pump, one which bolts to the front of the block and the other which bolts to the end of the block behind the crank pulley)
Crank Pulley
2 Fanbelts

[Gambit]

scrappy's or find someone who is breaking a PAS golf, i picked up a set for ?45, just make sure the union joins are not rounded

they are ?180 new from ECP and even dearer again from VAG
