I just dropped my rebuilt S52 onto the subframe and now I'm looking at fixing something that bugged me from the day I did the swap. Poorly fitted power steering lines that kink and bend and just fit like arse.
I found a shop that can build them local, but I just realized from doing some searching that the crimp in the middle of the high pressure line I'm running contains a flow restrictor. Confusing part is everyone seems to talk about the flow restrictor being inside the low pressure line on the return to the reservoir. Can anyone confirm?
If I get hoses built I'll cut the original high pressure apart and pull the restrictor out to re-use, but what about this one in the low pressure side? Should there be one in each?
What are the side effects of removal of either, some people are saying "It'll result in higher effort to turn" and other say "It'll result in lower effort to turn"
Random picture, apparently shows the low pressure side
