Weight savings would probably only be a couple of pounds, as you'd need the pump, pulley, reservoir and 10 feet each of supply and return line plus fluid to fill them. Is there even a PS pump for the LF3/4, or would would have to fab the mounting and redesign the accessory drive?

Yes, the XTS LF3 has a power steering pump which is shared I believe with many other LFX 3.6 models... just an aluminum bracket, P/N 12647922, pulley, P/N 12625446, and pump, P/N 23136459, plus lines, fittings, reservoir, cooler, fluid

forget I even mentioned this.. :-D

I pulled an incorrect reference last night while browsing for power steering lines....I weighed the Mr2 pump myself and 'mostly' dry it's only 10.5lbs

XTS power steering parts
23136459 pump 3.5 lbs
12625446 pulley 1.5 lbs
12647922 bracket .5 lbs
13280139 cooler 4 lbs

not including additional hoses, hose manifolds, fittings, and fluids...

Back to mounting the Mr2 pump...
