Steering rack differences

I believe that the rack in the SSEi is variable, or variable effort steering...
The Standard rach will ramp up the assist at low speeds, and after 20 mph the assist will drop off.. I forget what the ratios are off the top of my head...

Yes, it is variable effort in all SSEi'* for sure.
But Bill'* 95 has the TV2 RPO for the two valve electronic as well...Thats really intresting as to why. Bill you have done a fair ammount of front end work to your 93 have you not? suspension, ball joints..that kinda thing?

I can't believe no one else said it. "Yes Bill..you are nuts!, LilPookey is merely agreeing with you to make you happy" (j/k)
Are the pump rates different between the years? That could account for the difference.
Dr. Bob had mentioned that 96+ were programmable to a degree and he had his programmed for firmer response.

From what I have seen the newer gen variable assist 96+are adjustable, but are usually set in a good spot to begin with..
Bill..maybe the 95'* power steering system is a little bit gummed up? Maybe a system flush would help clear out some of the crap...?

The upgraded suspension on the 93 should make no difference in a straight cruise on the freeway, and the steering difference is very obvious in that situation. Alot more steering input is required on the 95, but there'* no looseness.
