Winter's over, buggy work almost over first racing coming way too soon!

Wiring on this deal going in right now Chevy equinox power steering from steering wheel to rack U-joint, 50 bucks. Epowersteering basic controller kit, 55 bucks. Some chop and reweld on the column, support tube and input shaft and a cut and mate of the yerf u-joint shaft to the Chevy shaft.

26-inchers at $20 a tire Kevlar belted, tore the sidewall on a brand new replacement front tire at the last race, so I figured these would be a nice upgrade.

Ripped up the yard yesterday, so far all is working well, have a 20 amp fuse on the eps, blew it twice, sort of expected that since the system needs a 60 amper. I intend to grab one of those soon then test again to see how badly the eps is hitting the battery.While it worked it was a beautiful thing!
