Power/Manual steering box issues

Check a local autoparts place and have them pull a fox body manual rack and a replacement power rack for your crown vic. compare and measure the differences. Just a thought.

'86 Crown Vics still had gear boxes, r&p didn't come until early 90s.

Yes, mine's definitely steering box.

Retrofitting a R&P might not be too bad, there are for sure enough cop cars in the junkers, assuming of course that the omnipresent mustang parts would fit.
