Wicked Bilt Puts the Power in Your UTVs Steering

Here’s an interesting fact: General Motors was equipping vehicles with power steering back in 1927! By the start of the 1960s, power steering was either a factory option or standard on all American-built vehicles. These days there isn’t a manual-steering model to be had.

Most UTVs come factory installed with manual steering. As road-going folks discovered many years ago, this can be hard to handle on extreme terrain or for long periods of time. If you need a little help justifying the investment, following are 4 reasons to consider upgrading your UTV’s manual steering:

• Improved ability to hold your vehicle to a line
• Reduced effort required to steer
• Race Proven (UTV Racers at the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series use Electra-Steer to enhance steering on the course)
• Less terrain impact transmitted to rider when traversing rough ground

Sometimes actions speak louder than words and fortunately we’ve got your hook up in that category as well. Our friends at Wicked Bilt, whose products have been proven to reduce steering effort by a whopping 40%, have put together clips demonstrating snow plowing and getting crazy dirty on a muddy course with their Electra-Steer:

The Electra Steer power steering kit is a bolt on power steering system that significantly reduces steering effort and diminishes bump steer featuring a torque-sensing unit that increases assistance as torque or resistance increases at the wheels. Units mount under the hood and Wicked Bilt has products for just about every UTV on the market.
