    Are you using your power steering rack clamps?

    I'm assuming that they are bigger to accommodate the power steering rack. Otherwise get a manual rack AE86, or KE70 clamps. I think they are the same.

    I'm sure the cross member is the same...just the mounting clamps will be different.

    crossmember between p/s and manual steer cars is different. you'll need adaptor bushes (tec arts sell them for one place to try), or the correct cross member.
