power steering in a 81 tt132 corona


crooked

Recommended Posts

I have a '79 rt132 and I'm pretty sure it's got a steering box..

When I did the conversion from steering box to rack & pinion on my ae70 corolla I needed:

  • [*:1asqjiyt] Rack and pinion steering column
    [*:1asqjiyt] Rack and pinion steering column shroud-thingy (end of the steering column slots into this and then it bolts to the firewall)
    [*:1asqjiyt] Steering rack (obviously)
    [*:1asqjiyt] Steering rack engine cross-member
    [*:1asqjiyt] I also used the lower arms, but I think the steering-box lower arms would have been fine.

Got all these pieces from a steering-rack ae70, everything fit up with no mods.

I'm guessing the same would probably apply to your car - find a rt132/tt132 with rack steering and grab all those bits I listed above, swap them into your car and you should be right :)

This is assuming there are t132's with rack & pinion (does someone know?), if there aint you'll have to find a rack setup from a different car (maybe a newer corona?) and chances are you'll need to do at least a few modifications to fit it.
