I am thinking about changing my original power steering unit, to a new
total control products rack and pinion w/ their power steering unit.
I would like to change over to the serpentine belt while I am doing this and wondering how much work this involves? and if it is worth it?
Thanks
scott

can't comment on the R&P, but the serpentine conversion is really easy.

My P/S is really tight thanks to a Flaming River 16:1 quick-ratio steering box, a new drag link, and stud rebuild kit. I've heard R & P is even tighter, but you increase turning radius.
