Safe-T-Plus

[Rob Robinson]

Several years ago I remember a thread on steering devices that generally
said if you were buying one to correct 'wandering' you should first have
your steering checked out to see if you are just applying a bandaid solution
to a worn or out of adjustment system. Further, if my memory serves me
correctly, several responses warned against buying any sytem that reduced
wandering by adding resistance to the steering systerm. It was expressed
that the extra force required by the power steering pump to overcome the
added resistance could cause premature wear and tear on the PS pump.
