Want to put AW11 manual rack in TE72

Postby bombapinoy » Tue Apr 14, 2015 9:35 am

So like the title says I'm looking to do a swap to a manual rack because I have the recirculating ball and I want more steering feel and input. What parts to I need? From what I've researched, I see that you need

AE86 cross member
AW11 Rack and Pinion
AE86 U joint? (Not sure what theyre talking about)
Bushings from T3

I already have an AE71 steering column. So I hope that swaps in no problem.
