I would think that for the most part, those who switched over to a manual rack (for whatever reasons), probably did so on purpose :gasp: and aren't all crazy hot about undoing it.
Unfair? I wouldn't say so. I'd say it's all in what you want. You may be trading for more parts but how dime a dozen are power rack setups vs. manual rack setups? Go to any junkyard in the world that has a fox body Mustang and i'll give you a million to 1 odds that it's power steering. Plus have you ever looked at any parts store at what a manual rack costs vs. a power rack? Holy crap you can get a power rack for $75-$90 whereas the manual rack costs you $200.
