Its time to install Power Steering on the Hummer! HUGE Thanks to https://www.oshcut.com/ for helping me get my parts so fast. Power steering is important in any vehicle, but especially heavy duty vehicles. The heavier the truck the more assistance it needs for steering. We had power steering working on our Electric Hummer conversion previously, but it was loud. This new electric power steering motor will be MUCH quieter and MUCH more energy efficient. Our Hummer’s name is ‘Whisper’ and now it will be quiet enough to live up to that name.

Congrats in advance. Look forward to more updates when you come up for air.
Can't wait for season two!
You should have listed where you got the motor assist at.
Don't want to put a damper on this amazing solution on the noise. However there is a miss that you might be unaware of. Have you considered that if turning the bushings inside of your new motor will be having undue stress placed on them that is why the gm group who produced the humvee used splines at the top of the shaft to provide movement in and out to remove noise from a messy moving joint that you cut the shaft on and and solidified to a firewall that was never supposed to be structural. Please take care as to not break the universal joint in the shaft or wear out the bearing material in the assist motor by either rubberizing the mount for the motor or adding in and out force reduction to the mount.
Why did you tape over your Harbor Freight vise half way thru?
@jerryrigeverything What maxi fuse holder are you using? Those look pretty sweet!
Would you mind telling us where the power assist motor came from so some of us with project trucks could look into it?
Man, all the hardwork you put on, doing this for the past year, keeping us entertained ,also congratulations for Junior
You need a flir thermal camera
Great series Zack! Hope all goes well with your new baby.
Awesome progress and congratulations on expecting your little one! Best wishes and health to you and the family
Congratulations on the baby!!!! It’s the best thing in life. God bless your family
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this project!
i gotta say the way you chose to connect that steering assist motor made the entire mounting process much harder and requiring modifying way more parts than were necessary. i would have kept the motor mounted horizontally and let the knuckles do the angle work. that said great idea on the controller mount that's both convent and practical and simple
will there be a durability test on Jerryrig Jr.? lol
Not totally convinced he's not a robot. Baby? Likely story.
Congrats Jerry!
Jerry you should look into voice over work too, great work on the vehicle.
