    will mk2 power steering fit on a mk2? for real dude, you had to ask?

    you need to swap your manual rack for a power rack, obviously, then install all the lines and brackets, as well as the pulley and pump.. you also need to switch the u-joint at the end of the steering shaft..

    the only time you even notice the power steering, is if you have a broken arm, or you are parking, or making turns under 2 mph..

    besides that, driving down the road, absolutely no difference. i feel that the manual steering is easier to drive when up to speed. you also get more feedback from the manual steering.. feedback is desirable to me, but to most it may not be..
