Fitting Power Steering

[320max]

Right, I've got an 86 320i and having just put some wider wheels on I've decided I really need power steering in my life.

My question is, what parts do you need to convert a car to power steering and are any parts specific to the facelift/pre facelift? Cheers

you need rack,pipes,bottle,pump and crankshaft pulley

And steering coupling. Manual one is longer.

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated. One last question, could I get all the parts from a facelift 320 and fit them to my pre facelift or are any parts specific to the cars age?

Facelift parts should fit.

Stating the bleeding obvious here, but you'll also need a belt.
