You need the rack, the pressure fluid lines, the pump with bracket and

I hear you! I have a 1982 Golf GTI steering wheel in my 87 Syncro, it gives
the word "Armstrong" a whole new meaning. It is impossible to turn the van
around in a parking lot with only one hand, and it would be nice to have
power when going off road too.
