Hydraulic pressure for operation of the power steering gear is provided by a belt-driven all-aluminum power steering pump. Most vehicles use a common droop flow rate and constant displacement type pump that is mounted in a common location (left front of engine). The SRT8 power steering pump is a constant-flow type, but appears the same externally and is mounted in the same location as others.
