Manual Steering Adapter

diablopony · 03-16-2001, 08:59 PM

Has anyone changed from power to manual using the adapter? I'm getting tired of the leaks.

Also, if you went this direction, was it a major difference in parking or general steering?

I switched from power to manual. Did it to free up some hp/lose weight. The adapter I used was a homemade model just like that of mustangs plus. Steering is tough but I can manage to make regular turns using one hand. Just a tad bit harder than that of an original manual. If you have wide wheels might be a little tougher.
