Wheeling went great, the steering wheel moves slower all around, but much stronger. Redbird is very tight and technical and the Sport and X handled the trails like champs.(besides a little tree rash <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />) Got some dash cam footage still need to edit, but for now, some pics. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Thanks,
Steering response was better on the highway, but PSC may have adjusted the backlash in the Mitsu gear.

I am running a cooler, on the return line, it's a requirement of the high volume pump.

Do you know what the specs are on the pump they supplied? GPM and PSI mainly. I'm wondering how it compares to the Mitsu stocker. In this case too large would just create extra heat.

I have the SP-1200X.

Pasted from the PSC site:

"This Pump is also a direct bolt on for 97' and newer Jeep applications. Increases the performance of your Jeeps power steering. These pumps are ported to put out [color:"red"]1600 psi and 4.5 gpm[/color] . Pump has #6 JIC male on pressure port and #10 JIC fitting on suction side."

Post the stock specs if you have them, I'm curious.

I touched the cooler a couple times over the weekend and it felt just warm, not hot.

Thanks for finding that. I have my manuals at my brother's house. I'll try to grab them this weekend. I know that info is in there because I've looked it up before. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Is a hydro MileMarker in your future?
