yes; provided your original system is rack n pinion, if its recirculating ball the ps collum wont fit properly but i think you can get aroud it by drilling some holes

yea thats sort of what I was meaning to say but it never came out if you want to use power steer use the PS ae85/6 corresponding x-memeber aswell. The powersteer rack has a larger diameter and therefore bigger brackets. also the coloums are different from PS to non PS but something could be modded easily
