What year and model Honda Civic?

ke70 xmember with ae86 p/s is ur best bet imo

wouldn't work, doesn't fit together. AE86 power steering only works with an ae86 power steer crossmember

I am planing on doing the P/S rack conversion on my friends RA23. It has a 1GGZE in it. will the AE70/KE70 x member and column fit this application?

Can I use AE86 style LCA's?

What you need is to convince ur mate to buy my sr20 xmember and big power 1ggte lol...

EG civic Discs i believe 262mm eg is early 90's bbut if you tell em the measurement they cant stuff it up

AE85 P/S rack is same width as steering box pivots on RA23 so can use this rack and X member for no geometry changes everything. Slam it add some roll centre adjustors. And get some shorter inserts. AE92 Corolla fronts. And weld on coil over sleeve kit and youll be laughing.

Has anyone actually done this?

nice i like it

You want the rack to have a litle less less than the steering pivots, and even so it is difficult to get the exact rack position. I still suggest converting a whole crossmember instead of trying to retro fit the original
