Steering rack question

[jacko16v]

Have just taken power steering off my mk2 as it was dead, fitted a brand new manual rack but am having problems getting the rack to reach the steering column. Got about a 1" gap. Question is will i have to get a manual racks column or is there another way round this?

You need the shaft with the two universal joints on it from a manual steering car.

Just what i thought, anyone got one kicking about.

Your luck is in my son. I will have in a week or so. 

I'm upgrading to  PAS.

the rubber boot is different too in case you were not aware, you guys may need to swap those too

£30 Posted? They are over £100+ VAT from VAG (well the PAS one is).

Seems a bit steep for a steel bar, will try and find one from my local scrappy
