Limiting Rack and Pinion Travel

Posted by: Brandon Kirby |
Tagged in: Tech

If you need to limit the travel on a rack and pinion we can help you with this. Most racks can have the travel limited. This is done when your steering turns too far in both directions. 800-338-9080

Mopar A Body

Posted by: Brandon Kirby |
Tagged in: Tech

We make a kit for Mopar B bodies and Mopar E bodies. We do not make a Mopar A body kit. These cars are not made to have a rack in them. A whole new front clip is the best way to put rack & pinion on these cars. These clips can be purchased at many chassis shops. Our B/E body kits fit K-frames from 1968-74. http://www.unisteer.com/search_by_product/bolt_in_rack_pinions/mopar.html

Rack Rotation

Posted by: Brandon Kirby |
Tagged in: Tech

All rack and pinions have rack rotation. This keeps the rack from binding. On our center-take-off racks the rack rotation may seem like a lot at the end of the center-take-off bar but it is still the same amount at the rack as any other rack and pinion. Here is a picture of what a center-take-off rack looks like. There is a large boot in the center of the rack with a bar coming out of the middle. Then the tie rod ends come off of that center bar.

How to Introduce Power Steering Fluid to your Pump

Posted by: Brandon Kirby |
Tagged in: Tech

Although it sounds basic, surprisingly the most common question we receive is how you can best introduce power steering fluid to your pump. So straight from our experts, here is a sure-fire way you can ensure fluid motion is working correctly:

  1. Pour power steering fluid into pump reservoir (prior to starting the car). Use real power steering fluid since brake fluid is not a sufficient substitute.
  2. Start the car with a friend that can pour more power steering fluid while you SLOWLY turn the steering wheel all the way to the right and then all the way to the left. Keep SLOWLY turning the wheel back and forth while your friend adds more steering fluid until reservoir is properly filled.
  3. Tighten the cap on the reservoir and hit the road.

Foamy Fluid?

Posted by: Brandon Kirby |
Tagged in: Tech

If your fluid is foamy or if it has air bubbles in it make sure you have correctly bled the system for air. If you have and it is still foamy then this means your system is sucking up air while running. If your pump is making noise this is also made because of the air. If you have a leak in the system then you will have to fix the leak and this should solve the problem. If you do not have a leak it does not mean that the system is not sucking up air. You will have to check all of the fittings, crimps, and connections that are in your system to make sure they have a perfect fit. These are the most common areas for air to be sucked in. It is a hard task to find the air leak but if you have any questions always feel free to give Unisteer a call at 1-800-338-9080 and we will be happy to assist you.
