More steering wheel input feel.
So does anyone know how to firm up the steering wheel feed back. My 01 monte ss and every other w body i have drove all feel loose. Is there any way to give it a more sporty feel?

Kind of a long shot, but I thought the grand prix had some models with variable effort steering. Not sure what all it would take to make that work in a monte though. I think the pump is the same, but the rack is different, and there is an electrical connection driven from the pcm based on vehicle speed.
I don't know much about it though, so I'm just guessing at what may be different. |
I took a little tour of Youtube and found several things that maybe of interest there if you want to check this out.
I think there is a Strut that can be mounted on the front of the tie rod assembly, it mounts to the frame but I don't recall if it can be used on the front wheel drive car. Seems as I saw an episode of Gears that covered that. You may want to check that out to see if there is something that may apply. I think some thing to check is a complete alignment. This should take some of the play out of the system. Good subject keep the info up to date. |
I will look into the videos later. I had a alignment done after i installed the drop springs. They made a toe adjustment and said the camber was off understanding so ( and i forgot to woller out the holes in the strut. I know i can put me some postive caster in and firm it up. Dont they make a adjustable upper strut plate?

They're not super complicated though, you can just buy universal ones and make them work. |
