    I've taken out my power steering set up and replaced it with a manual one.

    Everything fine apart from one bit - connecting the steering rack to the steering column.

    The shaft from the steering wheel is about 7-8cm too short to reach the rack :blink: Reason is the power steering joint is quite a bit higher as it sits on a resorvoir for the power steering fluid, so is actually closer to the steering column.

    I guess they are different parts, and assuming I'm going to struggle to find the manual steering bar bit, what else can I do to fix it together? Surely someone else must have come across this problem :confused:

    Thanks :2thumbs:

    you can use a MK3 supra intermediate shaft on the power steering column.

    You will also need a non-power steering yoke because the power steering one wont tighten up over the manual rack.
    These are all the same over a massive list of cars. Including KE70 and AE71's, SV21's, AL25's etc etc
