    Default stupid question maby but not sure

    is it possible to get a ae86 power steering rack working with a 20v silvertop if so what extra parts do i need to buy and is it a waste of time.

    you need the 20v PS pump and bracket. Im pretty sure it mounts down low on the exhaust side so you need some funky long lines made up.

    Is it worth it? In my opinion yes.

    well said and yes its on the exhaust side.
    i have pw/s on my ST 20v 86 and its sick.
    i didnt put it in so i wouldnt know exactly about the lines.
    shortened steering arms, longer rack etc etc and the steering is still light as a feather.

    and how hard is it to track down the power steering arms. are they the same on the ae82 or ae92 so if i have a hard time sourcing a power steering arm is there another car i could pull it off?

    Power steering arms can be sourced new or used quite easily.
    AJPS has new ones listed on the site
