I'm not sure who brought this back from the dead but thank you!!i can't get the link to work but this is what i want to do to,does anyone know the part number? my rack is leaking,my pump is leaking,and my speed sensor is leaking. I always loved manual steering on hondas, I can't understand why they didn't offer it in the US. the entire system is going to come out. goodbyr leaks,drag and weight.

Just go to autozone and ask for the manual steering rack for an 86 accord hatch. part # 108-1021
been there, done that, what i really want is a quicker steer ratio, ours is goddamn slow and anybody that's slid their rearend knows what im talking about
does the integra 1st gen have a quicker ratio? one of those racks, with a larger ps pulley or adjustable restriction in the rack would be ideal
can you still get these manual racks? Im thinking about ditching mine. Carot?

I might go to the yard soon. I'll see if they carry some. These were only available on the Accord hatch 86 so they are a bit rare.

well, there's a problem with this. that rack is the SAME PART NUMBER as the the power rack.
already been there.
Do you mean at autozone? If so that is shitty.
yeah carotman. im interested in a manual rack as well, if u still have any up there.
pm me and lmk if u find some! thanks
chris
you can get a used manual rack through the autozone used parts database. it's around $100.
good call, I dident even think about that.
yeah, one of the other local 3geezers is going to buy one soon and rebuild it.
when you go to autozone just have them look it up manually under steering it's 199
Does anyone know if there is there a difference in the gear ratios between the manual and power rack?
i've a spare manual rack for a 2g sitting in my buddys yard, i doubt they are interchangeable with a 3g, but if someone wants to run numbers and can use it, they can have it.
it's still in the rear crossmember but its in fairly good shape.
ICHIBAN!

hey can you get me the numbers on it whats it off of? what year i'll check interchange def interested. you have any idea what shipping cost might be? zip 31768. i might try it anyway,if can't use it i'll get rid of it on this old honda.com and recover my shipping cost. someone there might need it.
So with this manual rack do u need to change the sub frame over to?
as far as i know it's the same just bolts in. just the option of manual instead of power.
im in Trail BC.
it's from my chopped up 83 hatch.
i'll get those numbers as soon as i can
ICHIBAN!

thanks man i like my manual steering. i hope it fits those early honda racks were some of the finest rack and pinion units made.
Thats the part number I had order and got it today to find that it was a ps rack...
they both have the same freakin number they have to look it up in the computer to get the right one,they should have confirmed what it was before they ordered it.

yup, i posted that about 10 posts up.
in order to get the manual rack, you have to order it USED from them. even then it's iffy IMO.
when i checked on it they said the manual rack was available new, but it had the same number as the power unit,when they looked it up in the computer they were able to select eithier manual or power.
i went to a reman website and it seems the pn for the 2gen and 3gen manual racks are off by a letter, i'm thinking the tie-rod lengths might have to do with this, but i'll pull that rack out today and have a better look at it.
ICHIBAN!

So autozone nor there partner company can get manual racks new or salvaged...
Anyone know somewhere else?
