NEW Electric Power Steering Conversions
From EZ Electric Power Steering
If you nd your Mk II’s steering is too heavy at slow speeds, we have a
solution: an EZ Power Steering conversion that’s completely hidden
under the dashboard. The standard steering box remains unchanged,
as does the steering ratio and under-bonnet appearance. Steering assist is
fully adjustable and is sensitive to speed and load. CNC-cut brackets at-
tach the system and no cutting, drilling or welding is required. What’s
more, the car can easily be converted back to standard steering.
Electric steering o ers several advantages over hydraulic.
The electric motor only uses power when steering assist
is required; conversely, a hydraulic pump runs con-
tinuously and usually robs your engine of about four
horsepower – even when driving straight ahead.
Because the electric power steering system is
speed sensitive, it provides assistance at low
speeds but retains your MK II’s steering feel at
higher speeds. And, the amount of assistance can be
adjusted to suit the driver’s preference or to compensate for wider
tires or a smaller steering wheel. With classic hydraulic systems, the “feel” is not adjustable and often too light at high speeds.
And should the electric system ever fail (highly unlikely, we should add) the car would steer exactly as it did prior to the conver-
sion, unlike a hydraulic system where the steering could be dangerously heavy.
Available by special order only. Delivery is usually about four weeks.
