how to remove power steering?
 

Does anyone know how to remove the power steering from a 92 Civic?

Pump & Lines, Steering rack.

If you want to convert to manual steering, it's probably a good idea to get a manual rack. Though alot of people use there non-power racks as manual ones, but I don't believe it was designed to be utilized as such and might run into problems further down the road.

If your looking into something other than steering feel and want quicker ratio steering, try an Integra Rack. As you already know, DC2's and EH's(EG's) are interchangeable.

I'd also recommend changingt he rack to a manual one...

if you don't want a manual rack then make sure you loop the lines and leave fliud in them...

the teg has a quicker ratio then the civic? whats the lock to lock number of turns?

any way i can convert the power steering in my 96 hatchback?
i want better steering than i have now... something with a closer ratio as well and non=power... mine feels unstable. thanks.

remove power rack, pump and lines, then replace with a manual rack from the junk yard or a rebuilt unit from a parts store.

any info for the 96?

no rack swaps for 96-00, unfortunately at this point your SOL.

yeah I was looking at the quiafe unit .. still debating it

thanks for that other information .. is the teg rack a power steering rack?

I thought the manual rack for the 92-95 cx was 2.5 turns lock to lock, what do you say jay?

"Variable power-assisted"

as for the 96-00, there is a manual steering rack available from the CX models I guess. call the dealer to confirm - call the parts dep't and ask for a manual steering rack for a 96 CX.

is it really worth it should be your question...

I say I'll step outside to go to work tomorrow and check it...

Here's an article on the swap for 92-95
