Hard To Install P/S on Non P/S FC?
Not if you have the parts. The bracket, pump and rack.
The a/c would be a little more of a pia due to the condenser and all the hard piping running to it.
Not too sure about the wiring though now that I think about it. I would assume your harnesses would have the connectors, but I could be off there.

I don't mean to second guess you, but why spend money and time adding the power steering? I just ripped mine out and even in my heavy convertible its not bad, even standing still, and it feels so much better at speed. I'm just asking. Good luck.

This was covered a couple of weeks ago. The 86-87 cars that came without PS do no have the electrical connections for the PS pump and computer. Even if you install PS, you probably won't have much if any real assist because of this. All cars were wired up for factory a/c I believe...I've only ever seen one FC without a/c in my life, but Ive seen plenty without PS.

He means the A/c wiring in the wiring harness. Nearly ALL of the cars came with the A/C celectrical connectors, but not the power steerign electrical connectors.
In canada, every model, the base, GX, GXL, and TII all has the A/C wiring, but the GT did not. I love those cars! Coolest model available if you ask me.

power steering isn't really that great though it also is big and clutters up engine compartment ac on the other hand is a must I have an 86 without ps and a 87 with ps and I want to take it off the 87
