Re: Power steering up-grade?



I agree, the PS is like driving a boat on the lake, in the early 60's like the 300 and Newports.   Nice easy to turn, no road feel.  It feels like I should have some long satin gloves to drive it.  Our new cars, the 300 is a very soft feel PS, with good road feel, the Charger has great road feel, but you need some muscle to park the car.  At low speeds its a bit much sometimes.

I have definatley noticed that even though the car is much heavier the power steering is easier with less road feel on the 63 Chrysler 300 than on my 68 Dart GTS.
