so if you remove pas you will have to put up with wheel to gearbox contact?why can't the ram just be left in place? ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

you have tried to steer a PAS car with the engine off haven't you? go and try it if you haven't....you'll need to make some lock stops of some sort. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Surely the resistance is created mainly by the fluid though?I thought the reason for removing the Ram would be more to do with it'll seize up over time if left with no fluid as I thought that lubricates it. ________________________________________ Ryan |

Yeah it is the fluid Got a ram off in the garage and there is almost zero resistance ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

I am removing PAS to save weight and also because if i remove a/c and leave pas then i will need a rallye set up which is £150 but if i do away with pas too then i only need tension on the alternator.________________________________________ Team SUPERCHARGED I LIVE FOR THE 306 Old Project thread Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url = |

Ah right,be interested to know how it feels without PAS when your done I've got a VTS rack to fit,that I was promised was a Ph1 but low and behold it turns up and its Ph2 So I might consider junking the PAS alltogether rather than mess about fitting different pipes ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |

nowt wrong with a PH2 xsara rack, still around a full turn less than a 306 rack.note you will fail and MOT if you lave the ram in place, usually with wording along the lines of "parts missing from PAS system, PAS system inoperative/faulty" ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Rules have changed recently as most know, they are being stricter, though still down to the testers discretion and how many coffees he;s had that day  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
