if converting to non-power steering .. besides the non-PS rack, you need the shaft that goes from the small 'V' steering box back to the steering rad .. they are different between PS and non-PS. It's a rod about 2 feet long. PS is pretty nice to have .. I'd keep it ...makes the van a lot nicer to drive.
