I can help with the specifications though.
Chapter 32-350 in the FSM (available for "legal" free at www.startekinfo.com)
Min SLS pump pressure at idle (800-1000 rpm) = 130 bar
Max pressure for relief vale = 185 bar
Just a "tad" bit more than the steering pump!
Chapter 32-501 has more information concerning the operation of the SLS system - probably worth a read. |
Cheers, will have to look into it. Might need a bit more research, I might get away with it if the bypass has big piping
Only reasoning is that I have no use for SLS in the sedan, and I thought I'd make use of the pump. It'd be a shame to take it off if it could be "re-purposed".

Yes, well that is an option as the PS pump is going either way. Have to make room for an belt driven air compressor that side of the engine, possibly a belt driven vacuum pump too...

Why can't the power steering pump be used for power steering? Is this a left-hand drive vs. right hand drive thing?

Didn't realise sedans could have SLS
Even though I tow a fair bit, I'd prefer to keep things simple as I know the SLS parts can be pricey to replace
