Power Steering Cooler Upgrade
August 6th, 2007 -

Drifting places a lot of demand on the steering system of a car. In order to hopefully squeeze a bit more life and reliability out of our steering system, I upgraded the cooling unit from the stock loop of tubing to a finned and cooled unit out of a newer car. As this was a stock part it simply bolted into the stock location. I flushed an replaced the fluid in the system when I installed the beefier unit. I picked off an SN95 Mustang at the local pick-a-part wrecking yard.
Future upgrades for the steering system will be coming in the form of a slightly larger pulley on the power steering pump that should reduce the load it experiences at high RPM.












that is a cool ride, i am going to pick up a 89-92 GT this comming spring, love the cars, i've had an 85 gt, and 2001 Gt. got out due to kid and house.
but i have recovered from both and can't wait to start again. I would love to get into drifting, and use your tips on suspension, etc.
