you keep mentioning wet..The only way it could get any moisture on it where you ride is if a lizard was to sneeze as you passed by it.(LOL)

NO NEED TO SHOOT THE MESSENGER BECAUSE YOU DISAGREE WITH THE MESSAGE... Only relaying what i was told...

I thought it made a difference but according to Casey at Super UTV he says it does not matter which shaft is the input or output.

rocmoc, I too have the same idea as you(see my post #101 above) to mount it up high.I removed the existing shaft and upper u joint and test fitted the unit with the power head and it actually looks like it might be at a slight less angle for the shaft down to the steering box then what the stock shaft is at.There might have to be a little mod work on the firewall(cutting a small section out) but locating it there would also make it up against the cross member of the frame for making a brackett very easy.Like i said it was just a quick test fit,havent really got into it much because of lack of time and still have most of my tools in storage after our recent move but hope to get on it sometime this weekend if i can get things out of storage.

Question i have for you guys,would it not make sense that on the power steering unit one of the shafts would be the input(from the steering wheel shaft) and one would be the output?(from unit to shaft going to steering box)? I had that question to Casey and his reply was did not matter,would work either way.

I would still pull that fuse box off and look at the back side for burnt wires or no connection.I know you said you had power to the fuses but what about from the fuses? maybe i missed something.Good luck.

what about that empty fuse spot on your photo i had asked you about in an earlier post? best thing is to unplug the unit also to be safe but most say disconnecting battery is all you need to do.I think lenny has one for sale.I have an extra but want to hold on to it.

I test fitted my u joint and actually had to open it up a slight bit in order for it to slide on to the spline.Once on and with bolt installed it would not slide off.Larger side of u joint that goes onto input side of steering unit is as you say,even with bolt installed it could slide off.The way i am looking at it i would only have the two u joints,it might need a little mod work on the firewall.

I havent checked the shaft out of the steering box but the spline on the end of the steering wheel shaft is smaller then the one on the input side of the power steering unit head.The two universals they sent has a smaller opening on one end then the other.The small end does fit onto the steering wheel shaft spline but as you said it is a little tight and the larger end goes on the input side of the steering unit.

Got it, sent it...

Photos,photos and more photos.Video would be nice too(LOL)

Casey sent me a PDF file with a few photos on how to do it.I tried to post it here but could not.Anyone interested PM me with email address and i will send it to you.

you say #13 got hot,was there a fuse there? have you replaced that fuse if there was one? as kinarfi said check the back side of the fuse block,could be burnt wires or connection.

Welcome,you found the right place.

i powered mine up and it just continued to turn in one direction.did yours do the same?

got mine.there went your warranty...(LOL) What did they say about zeroing it out?

glad to hear it.Now put all those other projects aside and get this baby installed.I need to hear all the ideas of installation from everyone else before i do mine(lol).

c'mon dont tell me your afraid of her. of course i'm not trying to cause any trouble.(lol)

Same here,ups says Monday.Lets get a pool going on who installs first...I know i will come in last.

So, is it done yet????(LOL)

just want to clarify, I know you are talking about April 2012,but November 2012? thats a long way off.Also temps in that area during April average in the 80's.This is the closest avergae report i could find.Its from Niland Ca about 15 miles south of North Glamis KOA.Bombay Beach Ca is on the Salton Sea only about 6 miles away but their reporting weather station is over 20 miles from them. Niland weather in April Bombay Beach weather inApril

what do you mean "after he gets the bugs out it will kick most sidexside butts",the stock trooper already does that.just think what other butts it will kick afterwards.

whats with the exhaust? it goes down then circles back up.is that two converters before the muffler

31's are the largest i have heard of and that was with some mod work being done to the firewall.

Is there room for one??
