Yeah if I could find electric PS for that I would totally do that swap. You can adjust it's feel for speed and I wouldnt have to worry about rack seals failing and leaking.

 

That's one benefit but you lose the feel of direction on the tires. Especially when you slide about.

 

You don't lose feel at all, you could make it feel like manual steering if you want to. It's really adjustable

 

Well my only experience was in a BMW. So that's probably why. Freaking germans

 

Mosy new electric p/s os a motor turning a spur gear on the steering shaft under the dash. Basic manual steering with electric assist.

 

All I know it was tricky to determine where the wheels where cause there was no sense of feeling

 

Shit idea VW used them up until 2000-2001 on some models

 

Didn’t vw have that automatic manual system that ran on vacuum lines

 

Don't know about that but I know the windshield squirters ran of the pressure in the spare tire on a bug

 

Currently getting dusted with snow, but I’m too of mountain, sonit doesn’t really count....

 

Im pretty sure the old bugs had some kind of sequential tranny that was vacuum operated

 

My 5100's were here in a week

 

My camburg uca's where here in 3 days

 

You got competition @BartMaster1234

 

Why do you need to drop it to remove the shocks or springs. Shocks will come right off, you can muscle them around. The springs you can rent a spring compressor to dick with if it won't drop far enough.

 

Your trying to replace the shock? Just let the rear hang and pull down on the shock and it should compress.

 

Disconnecting the sway bar usually allows the rear to drop enough to get rear springs out... may have enough room to muscle in lift springs too

 

Im pretty sure his shocks have been relocated judging by the ig pics.

 

No that's how stock runners are
