Gary.
After a whole lot of research, I've come up with a plan to install a Mazda
power steering rack in the Tiger. The rack will most likely be powered by a
Toyota MR2 electric p.s. pump and a 4QD motor controller . No cutting or
welding required on the car but there has been a whole lot of fabrication,
head scratching and scheming ( not necessarily in that order lol) .
Hopefully it will go in this winter along with a z spec T5 trans.
There's a couple pics of it mocked up on a spare crossmember here.

Thanks to all you responded about the tie rods. Dale's kit must be popular.

Curious minds want to know..
