Really? I just tried going with a 2x4 power steering box and found that the pitman arm was too small to fit on the existing 4x4 equipment I already had.

 

could you replace the the 2wd pitman for one off a 4x4 and make it work? I think the boxes are still the same, maybe just the pitmans are different?

theres an alignment mark on the pitman arm to get it on the box correctly..

 

i have 90 toyota with the 22re and when i got it it had no power steering i had to add it on

 

Negative.

Notice the overall size difference between the 2wd pitman arm and the 4wd pitman arm (the 4wd being the more robust of the two).



Now notice the size of the holes between the two:



4wd will not work with 2wd (as far as my parts show me).

 

Is there a night and day difference between these trucks w/ PS, and w/o PS?

i currently dont have Powersteering, and am looking around to put it on my truck, just making sure its worth the money/effort.

as long as i dont have to sit there and crank the wheel forever while in the parking lot or offroading ill be happy.

I am wondering that myself. I have stock tires and it not so bad once you learn how so see what is in front of you that way. I like the tight feel of the manual going up the highway. If you have the manual than the gas piston on the relay rod makes a huge differerence. I drove like that for two years. I did not even realize it was under there. It it will rip the wheel out of your hands.

 

huge difference offroad and at slow speeds

you wont notice anything at 15mph + .. Same on any vehicle really.

worth every penny IMO

 

is the power steering assembly the same on an 89 as an 86?

since i have access to a rolled 89, i might try and get the power steering off it, would it work or do i have to get the assembly from an 86-88, if its the same on the 89 i could get it for like $20, or $125 at a junkyard.

 

its the same

 

Everythign besides the gear box from a 22r should be the same between 2wd and 4wd right?

 

I have complete power steering set ups (lines, pump, idler/pump pulley assembly, reservoir and box) if anyone is interested....can ship anywhere..

 

That's correct

just thought id post that for others. been using it with my ps stuff

 

nope, apparently PS was an option on the 22re, as i have a 94 PU thats got a 22re and manual steering

 

Can anyone tell me what the idler arm looks like for the ps pump? i bought mine off craigslist and it didnt have a good idler arm.

 

why is this so hard for people to find in searches?

*BUMP* ... I always put keywords in my writeups... but im not sure people are finding this junk

 

anyone know where to find one of those air control valves on the steering pump?

mine didnt come with one, and i dont need it, have a 22r.
