Hey,
Looking at putting a powersteering setup into my WT. Looking at either a bolt in jimny setup (~$800 from wreckers) or a vitara (dunno price but no what adapter kit is). Id say they would both work out roughly the same. Is the vitara a bigger box/pump setup? or will the jimny setup be ok for 31-32" tyres?
Thanks

I recently put vit P/S into my coily...cost about $400 with new hoses etc. I hvae been told by a few people to put a cooler into the return line as they do over heat.

now that benT has the kit it will make the VIT a much quicker easier job than it was when i done mine.
Vit setups are available fairly cheap at times,$150 thru to $300 from what ive seen on forums,plus the kit,plus new lines made up if need be.
i think either kit will be as good as the next and do a well enough job.I run vit p/s and love it

a mates old zuk on 33s with a little sports wheel was still easy as.mine on 31s is fine,but not awesome these days with the locrite.

cressida is the go. slyvan has it on his lwb with a falcon pump(Ithink) on 33's and it is light as a feather.
mine has vit ps on 34's and stuggles at times
