Hi. I've been looking & thinking about it also. I'm about ready to take the plunge, just am trying to find out more about it. If I find anyone who has installed it on theirs, I'll let you know.

Installed there R&P package on my '71 last fall. Took a while and multiple people to get that double-U-joint aligned properly. If it isn't setup right you get binding as you turn the wheel. I was finally able to get all of the binding out by mistake...I turned the wheel with the eninge off and the wheels on the ground...the extra force of no power assist got the steering shaft pushed back into the column just the right amount. Who ever said brute force and ignorance doesn't work?
Any way, if you have any questions, let me know and I'll see if I can help.

I have heard good things about this set up. Quicker, smoother steering.

Well, it would be hard to compare the steeroids system to the original setup on the car, since my original system had almost all of the front suspension components seriously worn, or in such a bad state of repair. The person who did all of the suspension work on my car put it this way, there is worn, there is shot, there is gone, then there was my car. So, that being said, the steeroids system definitely has a quick response, and once you get the binding out of the u-joints it is really smooth. With the system, you think where you want to turn, and the car is right there with you. My let down right now is the Eagle ST tires on the stock rims. A better compound/higher perfomance tire is definitiely needed.

I have it in my car, I've done my share of mods to my car and it must be one of the best ever mods. Steering feel is much better now, no more loose steering or steering play. It took me about 3 hours to install it, it was a direct bolt on job.

I'm glad to hear so many good responses. I've been thinking about adding Steeroids since my wife complains that the steering is too loose. Maybe we could get a group purchase going?

Anything, but Stock and more mods to come!
SSBC Force 10 Brakes, 3.73, TH350, 355 CID, Rack and Pinion, Vette Brakes suspension front and rear.
Have it, Love it, Recommend you buy it. Only had an issue with a couple of the brackets that they drilled the holes the wrong size, nothing that a tech call and a drill bit couldn't fix.
