Power Steering

Has anyone here installed the power steering ? I know that it is expensive but I'm getting old and after a long night on the trail my left shoulder is killing me. I was thinking that the power steering might help some. As you know it's left lock to right lock on the wheel while trailing and I think that that is what is doing my shoulder in.

At slow speed the steering is not that easy and when you hit a rut in the mud it pulls the wheel into the rut. I need something that would make it a little better or easier to steer.

Wheelin has the power steering on his. If he doesn't respond to this post, PM him about it.

Ive got the Unisteer power steering kit. Its AWESOME!! It will eliminate all the bumpsteer and makes it 60% easier to steer. You will love it

Nick, you probably need to upgrade to something else soon. I will take the one you have off your hands. Just send it on over. LOL

How well do yall think it would work in the mud and water.
is it sealed up very well. what if water got in it. and it stopped working.
i bet it would be really hard to steer without power. what are yalls thoughts about this. power steering would be really cool.....

Chris,

At our first race at broad-River Todds Uni-Steer quit, only because of a connection problem. It just goes back to stock steering, no big deal.

Well , thats good to know , I just wonder how well it handles water and mud.
also i wonder how much power it draws , dont want to be in the woods with dead battery....

Well Ive played in my creek and in alittle mud..No problems so far and I have over 500 miles on mine. I love it. but like pate said if the power steering does quit, it goes back to stock. Your more than welcome to drive mine if you make it to one of our rides

Soon as i get a few more things done to the rhino ,
i will most certainly start comeing to alot of the rides....

I watched Hunterworks video on the install and it looks like it comes stuff to keep water and mud out of the unit a rubber type cover that shields it from the mud and water. It also mounts high on the firewall. I am not sure about the price it still is a little high but if my arm don't get better I am thinking it is the best bet for me. I think that I will wait a little while before I order one and see. Thanks for the info.

I doubt the price will go down anytime soon.
I dont think thay justify enough sales to lower the cost.
i almost bet since the grizzly comes with it now. the 010 rhino will
most likely come factory with it. it seems the grizzly is the guinea pig for the rhino. just like the fuel injection.

I may consider it after i get other things i need. it would be nice
on slow rocky trails.

Chris.

Maybe they will make a factory kit for the new Rhino that will also be able to be implemented on the older Rhinos. Maybe it will be cheaper than a grand. That is alot of money, but I am sure it would be nice to have. I went up and over a downed tree, and man it ripped the wheel out of my hand. I dont really feel anything while moving thru the woods, but I bet if you were riding somewhere like Windrock that PS unit would shine.
