1st Message...Assistance On Power Rack/Power Steering Pump Problem

[Payton King]

Are you sure you are having problems with the pump and not the rack? I was running a stock LS pump on an AGR rack and was having problems.

First problem was too much flow causing an over assisted feel at highway speeds. Made it very darty. The other was I had an internal leak in the rack making it feel like I had no power steering. Thought it was the pump and changed it....just like you with no change.

In my opinion, which is not worth much, you are having a rack problem not a pump problem. I am not sure who makes your rack although Chris Alston sells it. Need to give them a call. I sent my rack back and had the seal fixed and also had the torsion bar size in the rack increased to give it a more firm feel. They also reworked my pump to work with the mustang style rack. It is great now.

Turn One does a great job on pumps. Call Alston as your rack needs to be looked at as well. 1.5 is the correct flow for that rack.
