    Default ae71 steering rack the same as ae86?

    Are the ae86 Steering racks the same as the ae71?
    Or can I put an ae86 steering rack in place of an ae71 one but still use the ae71 steering column?
    Someone must have done this. I am too busy to rip apart mine just to try.

    excellent, I have an 86 rack so no more stuffing around for me.
    Thanks for the information all.

    Anyone know whats involved in rebuilding an ae71 steering column? (just 1 bearing?)
