Hello Everyone, Ive been removing parts for weight loss purposes and this is one of the last things i would like to do. Does anyone have a DIY on 06+. Or is this something not many of us are doing? Any info would help. Thanks

 

it's electronic power steering... there's really isn't much you can remove. you could unplug the steering rack if you just want the feeling of no power steering.

 

Is there anything else i would need to do once steering rack is removed? Nothing that i will have to plug up. or mod? Thanks

 

You see where the power steering pump is.... right next to the power steering fluid? Well now get out from under someones else hood and go back to yours... BECAUSE it's electronic power steering. You can remove the steering rack if you want.. let us know how that goes on a test dive after.

 

yes there is... It's called the steering wheel. If you remove the rack , might as well remove the steering wheel at the same time.
I cant wait to see this!

 

^^ this.

He ment you can pull the power plug out of the steering rack. Not take the rack out.

 

yes, thank you. the rack needs to stay in the car otherwise there is no way to steer!

the only steering elements you could remove are some wires and the EPS ECU which would save about one pound.

 

Just Asking.
