I am putting a sn95 rack and pinion on a 93. I have sn95 r&p with 93 tie rod ends (inner and outer). This is what I best understand that is needed. I also want to do a new pump and lines while I am at it. Does anyone know if a sn95 pump will work or is better and what about pressure and return lines? Is there anything else I need to replace to have all new steering components. Anyone see anything wrong with what I have?

You are not the first to use a 94-95 PS pump on a fox. I think you'll like it - the steering feel is much less Cadillac-like (lock to lock with your pinky) and it doesnt whine.

Since you'll have both the pump and rack from a 5N95, it should all match up for the hydraulics. I dont know about the Inner tie rods outward, but it sounds like you're all over that.

Good luck.

Is the 95 pump less prone to making the whine while turning the steering wheel?

I am using a 2002 rack and pinion, which I understand are all the same from 94-04, correct me if I'm wrong. They are also the same as the 93 except the internals which make it steer stiffer and the tie rod ends. Does this mean I should use new lines for a 93 or a 2002? And for the pump do I need a 94-95 or can I use a 2002? Will my belt size need changed?

if your going to use a 94-95 pump i would use 94-95 lines.. and as for the 2002 pump its a different pump then a 94-95

so use a 94-95 pump and then use the 94-95 lines
