PSS 2012-2014 Ford Raptor Power Steering Reservoir Upgrade # PSS4005-1
This item has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available for purchase.
After hours of shock and suspension testing on the ICON Vehicle Dynamics Ford F-150 SVT Raptor it was determined the OE steering system needed some upgrading. When pushing the Raptor hard the factory power steering system would start to aerate the fluid. This aeration leads to foaming which causes air bubbles in the fluid and this leads to a situation where the pump can produce a whining or "growling" noise. Air bubbles are compressible and fluid pumps do NOT LIKE AIR in the system! Hydraulic brake systems have reduced performance when air is present in the lines. The same is true of the power steering system on your Raptor. These symptoms can ultimately lead to reduced life of the pump and reduced performance from the steering rack. Power Steering Solution has developed a high performance billet aluminum reservoir that not only increases the overall fluid volume but also includes an anti-cavitation valve as well.
