Power Steering?

[boneybradley]

yeah find someone breaking a same colour golf and swap the whole door...all mk3's at some point rust at the door bottoms and if caught when it first happens you can repair as new

[golfmk31993]

anyway back to the point ,

fitting power steering can it be done?

if i have all the parts needed how much labour would it be, and were could i get it done?

[boneybradley]

it would take 6-8 hours to fit i reckon (using good parts and a good base car..more if theres any problems!)..£300 maybe?? plus parts!!

[golfmk31993]

so do you know were i could get this done,

i think it would be worth it for £300 as i plan to keep this car untill it dies, wich wont be for a few years (touch wood)

[boneybradley]

phone around you local area and ask...maybe wise to use a vw specialist tho?
I would keep it non pas or buy one with it all ready fitted!... but if you do go for it make sure you dont buy any gti/vr steering parts as they have a weightier and stiffer steering set up...and are not interchangable!!

Yea same here i think it could well be worth investing in PAS

[saul79]

job could be done in a few hours.

i think wot im gunna do is put some 15inch alloys on the car and lower it 60/40 and see if that makes the steering a bit easier, maybe some powerflex bushes would help aswell, and a nice new steering wheel with loads of grip

anyone know of anything else i can do to my non power steering to make it feel easier to drive and more responsive???

[Wizzkidd]

Drive faster?



Yea same for mine think PAS is outta the window.

Wana get some 16's and lower it possibly 30/30 cant have it too low as i live in speed bump central lol.

WK.

i have heard that you can modify your steering so that there is less turns from left lock to right lock,

anyone know how to do this
