Hey everyone,

I am running 98-02 camaro accessory drive components for only the crank, waterpump and alternator. Is there some kind of kit out there that bypasses the power steering or will I have to replace the power steering location with an Idler pulley? If so, I would end up with a tensioner and 2 Idler pulleys in the setup as well. There seems like there could be a better way, or is that the way everyone routes their accessories? Thanks for any help!

I know a few people that have done away with the ps pump and the idler. Run a shorter belt and run it crank to alt to wp to the tensioner and back to the crank. It puts alittle less belt on the crank than i like but they have had no issues.

Yeah, that doesn't seem to put a whole lot of belt on the crank like you were saying, but I suppose I could try it. Worst case scenario is that I buy an idler pulley and new belt if it slips. Thanks for the feedback!

there are lots of threads on ps deleate. the only thing I have run across that is not really mentioned are the trans cooler lines are in the way. easy enuff to fix.

I saw all the threads on A/C delete when searching using LStech's search option. but no PS delete. I used google to search LStech for PS delete and finally came up with this for future LStech-ers reference:
