Sorry so long for the answer. I am trying to make my truck as efficient as possible to get my miles per gallon as high as possible, see my site at www.maxmpg.org. I want to take as many parasitic loads off of the engine and power steering is one that's gotta go. Now that I've removed the clutch driven cooling fan and installed a 12v radiator fan, I'm up to an average of 28 mpg in combined city and highway driving. Just highway is above 30 mpg.
manual steering
I've got a 1998 Nissan Frontier and I'd like to convert it to manual steering. Has anybody done this and if so how? I called the dealer but they say the Frontier only came with power steering. Is there a drop-in manual steering box that will fit my truck? Thanks for any help.

I'm not going to pull the power steering belt off. I know it would make it worse than manual steering which is why I want to make it a proper manual steering setup. With just taking off the clutch driven fan and installing a 12v cooling fan I average 28 mpg in both city and highway. I won't be buying a hybrid because nobody make a hybrid truck. Thanks.
