OK
So Rex's motor is pretty much dead. Luckily I have a spare motor and a brand new head, so that is going in soon. I figure I might as well delete the power steering while I have the motor out of the car.
My question is, what needs to be done to the rack so ensure it's survival in this process? I know that simply removing the pump and getting a new accessory belt will not fix all my problems. I want to do it right and make it as easy as possible to turn the car, without the loss of power that power steering causes. Any input from anybody that has done this before?
