Subject:Power steering component differences
From:Niall Mac Caughey

Hi Folks,

  I'm in the process of buying a used PS pump, reservoir, pipes & rack to convert my 86.  A PO fitted wider tyres and a smaller Audi steering wheel and my puny biceps can't handle the load.

  The rack comes with track rods, but I have a misty recollection that there might be other differences from the manual version that I'm overlooking.  I think something was posted to the list about this in the past few months, but I've searched the archives and can't find it.  Can anyone help me out on this?

  Thanks!

  Niall
