      ^^^ I'm guessing you know this from experience?

      1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
      1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
      2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

      1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

              the ford part #s for the power steering boots and the manual boots are different. neither one is still available. you could get them from 4G on the GB. KIA part KK150 32 125 is the LHD manual steering boot.

                Go to any parts store, ask for a "Quick Boot" kit. They are 2 pc glue together boots and work well! Have a set on my festy for 2 yrs ...no problems so far.
