I want to put power steering on my 94 22RE Yota. Can anyone tell me what all is needed? I am going tomorrow to buy some p/s parts and can get everything thats there. I'm just wondering if anybody has done this and what all I should get. Also, I have a/c so I'm wondering if the crank pulley is different.

 

im wondering the same thing. i have a/c but no power steering. is it alot of trouble and what parts are needed

 

I just put power steering in my truck, u need:
Ps gear box
Idler arm
Resevoir
Ps pump
Steering rod (intermediate shaft)
All the line sets

As far as crank pulley im sure its the same, not 100% cuz im using the 1jz ps pump n serp belt

 

It's a fairly easy swap. You will need the steering box, pressure and return lines, the cooler loop, pump and bracket, reservoir, and the crank pulley add on. I don't know if a truck with A/C already has this, but for non A/C trucks there is just a small pulley that bolts onto the main crankshaft pulley with 4 10mm bolts.

Also on the pump there is an aluminum idle up valve that hooks to an aduster that is in the intake of oem equipped power steering trucks. I chose not to bother with that and just capped off the vacuum ports on the idle up valve. I have my idle set at 600rpm and can turn the wheels lock to lock on pavement with 235mm wide tires without it stumbling at all, so on a 2wd I dont think the idle up valve is really all that necessary

Edit: Just read JCtoy's post. I personally did not need the steering intermediate shaft - I was able to loosen the joints under the dash and slide everything together to fit the power box. I also have tilt though, so that may be the difference - better pick up the intermediate shaft just in case

 

I actually just did a ps install in my truck yesterday. Its super simple if u goteverythin only prob I ran in to was the top 17mm bolt on the top o the ps Box i had to bore out the hole. and as for the shaft I did what twin turbo taco said just loosen the 12 or under the dash and loosen the oneby the box and slide toot to the length I needed. Took about 1hr30min to do it.

 

I just bought all the parts to add ps to my truck. Hopefully that will happen this weekend. There is a good picture thread on one of the other yota forums. If I can find it I'll post a link.

 

Found it faster then I thought: Power Steering Info. 22R or 22RE - YotaTech Forums

 

Hey can you take pics of everything you need to do this before you install?

 

where is a good place to look for all the parts you need to do the install and about how much was everything if you dont mind me asjing

 

Yeah I'll take some pics.

I got the complete assembly from a parts truck on craigslist. I gave $100 for everything.

 

what years and model will work on a 92 2wd that way i can start looking around and hopefully find something soon

 

Steering box needs to be 89-95 I believe. I pulled a power box off of an 85 and it would not fit, mounting holes were way off.

Everything else can be removed from almost anything with a 22r and power steering. My current pump/bracket/pulley are all from a 1983 Celica, my lines/reservoir/cooler are from a 91 22re 4Runner, and my box is from a 94 2wd 22RE pickup.

Just be careful if its a 2wd v6 steering box, some models might be the same as the 22RE, but every 2wd v6 box that I have seen also had rear ABS and a different steering box. You can tell the difference easily as the ABS steering box will have 2 wires going to it. Stay away from that box.

 

Sorry didn't even get to start the ps install. Found a guy selling all the window/lock power options and he was on the other side of the state so that killed my day to work on the truck.

But I did find this on here: http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/suspension-chassis-40/power-steering-lots-pics-7494/

 

does it have to be off a 2wd to fit my truck i found parts but there are off a 4wd. does that matter

 

I was told the only difference is the pitman arm which you can reuse off your 2wd.

 

I'm pretty sure the 2wd and 4x4 boxes are different.
