I have used Jason McCully's mod for my AC condenser, mounted to the radiator brackets in Martin's kit(eliminates threading rods thru the radiator and allows radiator removal w/o upsetting your AC lines - very slick). The AC condenser as it mounts in the nose of the car does not allow space for the Power steering cooling lines. Is there a fix for this.??? Help

 

I used one of these: Derale 13212 Derale Power Steering Coolers - Free Shipping on All Orders @ JEGS

 

Thanx for your quick reply TBone, went to their website(Jegs) saw the cooler, so now I ask where did you stuff that thing. Also appreciate the info on the power steering pulley relocate tat I got from Jason also. Thanx again

 

I just eliminated it on all my builds. I've had no issues on the street or the track with overheating.

http://www.cardomain.com/ridepost/96...da-Miata-MX-5/ I mounted it in the left lower opening of the bumper (drivers side) The cold air intake is on the other side.

 

Just want to thank TBone and Jason for posting the info on the power steering cooler mod.

 

The car i bought has no power steering but one not go whole hog and use the mini electric power steering and mount that in the cooler in the trunk? I've also seen people trying to use the Chrysler Cherokee electric power steering pumps. Or something from England I think it was the renault something another that the Eagle Talon guys are trying to figure out how to make it work.

 

On Nadine I pulled the factory cooler loop and have had zero issues with it. Some of the later NA's with PS did not have the cooler either (3 of the parts cars I have owned had PS and no cooler, Factory set up as far as I could tell).

 

Thanx Meierznutz, going to fab a small loop of hose or tubing and return the line to the reservoir as per previous posts.

 

I don't think I would even do that. Disconnect the cooler and use the longest hose of the two to bypass the cooler completely, no loop needed.

 

Much easier solution, I 'll go with it. Thanx Meiernutz.....
