Hey CHRISO2008,

What issue are you having here? Why would you like to do this?

With the power steering disconnected you will essentially have manual steering eg. no assistance.

You may be able to purchase a manual rack with a different ratio but i would expect this would be an expensive route to go down.

Regards, Joe
