Hi Folks

Does the Volvo c303 have power steering ?

If not, is there a way to connect a power steering unit from another truck or 4WD.

I lve in Australia

Cheers

Mick

The C303 does not have power steering. Power steering conversions have been done in the past mainly by people in Europe. I can't remember where I saw the topic discussed last--it may have been on this forum or on the Yahoo Groups. If you do a search, you should be able to find further information.

Cheers,
Greg

Some of the civilian volvo's had powersteering. Here in norway (and sweden) there is many who has tried and some work and some dont. I have heard that you can use parts from chevrolet van. there are some guys trying this out here now so i can post a link to the site when they post it how to and what parts you need etc.

I follow this topic with full attention!.

I also have been thinking about this.
The steering setup is very uncommon/weird.

I was thinking for using a full hydrolic steering setup,
with a pump driven from a pulley or electric,
like new cars have today. Advantage of electric driven pump
doesn't need extra brackets on the motor.

I have found ONE example on the internet, he used
a steering setup I think from a van or something like that.
