i recently bought a pulley kit. completely forgetting about the power steering. i want to keep it. but now i cant with the pulleys. but, i do remember seeing steering assists on a few S4's. i have a 91 coupe with a TII swap. is there a way to convert mine to the steering assisit set-up? so i can have some type of power steering. anyone done this?

i have a s5 with pullies and powersteering. just need to bolt the crank pully to the underdrive set up.

Bingo!



I have an s4 with the underdrives; thats what I did as also.

keep your eyes out for a manual rack, the car actually drives real nice with one.

Then you can get rid of that stuff too.

i agree with rob i converted my rack from auto to manual (well just plugged the holes) and i like it

i looped my hoses on my 91 but i am still wanting a manual rack. It would feel better than a looped power steering but it works for now

plugged mine, feels perfectly fine to me. im about to do it on my 88 n/a as well.



and probably my fd too.

it might feel alright, but there is no comparison to a manual rack



I have one for my vert if I ever work on it, and my 87TII has one factory.

anyone have a write up on this, or maybe some pics? never really done any steering system work outside of replacing the pump...
