does anyone know if hydro assist is being developed for the 2.0 I4 e-torque wranglers? it seems like all the support is for the 3.6 motor with power steering conversions, and the 2.0 was forgotten lol.

just curious. i'm really loving the 2.0 engine, but aired down 35s on rocks are very hard to turn.

I don't have the answer you are looking for, but I can offer an alternative: Swap to a 2-door steering box. The 4-door's steering ratio is 15.6:1, while the 2-door is 17.4:1.

I contacted PSC about a week ago, and they said they should have a pump setup for the 2.0 within a month or so. However, I only inquired about the 2.0 without e-torque.

interesting. i'd assume the electronic power steering is the same between the two I4 engines.

Yes, but if PSC is offering a new belt-driven pump, the mounting may be different between the two engines, since a lot of the front of the engine is different, from what I understand.

Do you have the giant 48 volt battery pack under the vehicle? if so that is the e-torque system.
