Thinking about power steering

Hey folks...I'm toying with the idea of adding power steering to my RZR. Who's got it and how is it? Also, is it a hard install?

Chuck , i have the unisteer power steering on my S.
it is one of the best mods i have done. in the slow rock crawling.
it is awsome. and there is no bump steer...

it is not that hard to install. you just need to drill 2 holes in the steering
colum and wire it up. about 2 hours worth of work.

I would never own a sxs with out it. after having it.
i have it on my RZR and i had it on a Rhino when i had one.

Chris...

Thanks ChrisC...I have the Camlock parking brake...Do you know if that will be in the way for the install?

Ya chuck i have the cam lock too. yes you need to modify the bracket
just a bit. to lower it down to clear the power steering unit. not much just
a little. its no big deal....

Thanks!

i am adding 2'' lift and 30 '' tires this week but was thinkin about the power steering my self/ let us know what you think
now the parking brake chris is the camlock the best or something better since you had done yours.

No teddy , the cam lock is still the best park brake i know of.

Also , are you sure you want 30 inch tires?
seems like you will loose quite a bit of power with that
tall of a tire....

I have power steering on the Rhino.......love it. I don't really think the RZR needs it, but it would be nice to have on there too.

I agree with you Airborne, it's more of a "luxury item" but I still like the idea. I'm kind of at a crossroads with my RZR. Do I keep moding it, or sell it for an S and start over.........................

Honestly, with the Rhino it is a must for us. My wife about broke her thumbs on more than one occasion. With the S I don't struggle to steer it like the Rhino, so I just don't see the need for it. I might feel differently in the future. It is a very nice feature though, especially if your woman drives it at all. I don't know what all you have done to your RZR, but the biggest advantage I see to the S is the extra travel in the suspension. Other than that I can't see selling a good RZR just to buy an S. Of course I have never been in the position to sell a good regular RZR for an S, so I really should not comment. To each his own.

You are right...long travel would be the main advantage. My "build" is on the build thread.

Probably best to do the power steering and maybe a clutch kit and be happy.

yeah chris i thought it might be a little much but i have 28'' and 30'' tires itp xxl and an adj 1''/2''/3'' kit and the 4 seater just needs a little more ground clearance as far as the power that will come next
