Why would you want a manual rack? Without fluid pressure, it is manual rack and pinion anyway. Or do you want a slower ratio manual rack that will be easier on your arms?

If you are savvy you can do an electric power steering conversion for relatively cheap.

I guess I'm the only one in this thread so far that understands the guy might be building something along the lines of racecar stuff.

Probably be better posted in the Suspension section..

Needs minimal welding but I converted mine to a manual rack. Midwest Chassis offers a manual rack to be used with either their k-member or the stock one which I've been told is more forgiving. I have runners on the 99 car and steering hasn't been too bad really.
