How do I take off my power steering?
I was just curious because I don't need it. My car is gonna be a straight drag car, so it's useless and takes up power.
Do I need any replacement parts when i do it?

start buy removing the belt. then drain the sytem. remove the hoses. take out the pump and the bracket. turn your whell from side to side to get ALL the p/s fluid out. and your done.

um...he's almost right.
You MUST leave some fluid in the rack to keep everything lubricated.
Most people run the RTR setup...which consists of lines and a breather coming out of the rack, so that fluid can fluctuate, to not build up any pressure and allow for easier turning

I tried running mine without the ps for a while. Got sick of it and just swapped for a manual rack. Its easier to turn than the power w/o pump and the rack itself is a good few pounds lighter.
