The non ps racks interchange from 90-93 festiva to aspires and visa-versa to my knowledge(i have swapped into a 96 aspire.) .So it would seem it would bolt up.Hard to say otherwise what mods might have to be performed after that with pulley ect.Hopefully someone has done this and will see and reply but maybe you are a for runner in this attempt.Good luck.Comment

Why is there 2 threads for the same topic? Seems like this one should be deleted. I am with jfd64: it should fit. The external dimensions are marginally different, so I don't know why you wouldn't able to use the aspire PS steering rack.Originally posted by Dragonhealer View PostThe Festiva Store

Yeah, why two threads?Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.Comment
