84-85 and 86-87 steering rack difference

Postby x1aO » Sun Jan 21, 2018 8:45 pm

What needed to use a 84-85 power steering rack on a 86+, i got a 86 GTS and bought a p/s rack from one of the member here. When you compare both rack side by side the 84-85 is alittle difference. Wonder what does it need to install into my 86 GTS.

The RH rubber bushing is different.
Inner tie rods are different, but if the rack came with them you're fine.
The power steering lines to the rack are slightly different, but I believe they are close enough to work (I could be wrong).

It's more or less a direct replacement.
