Will a manual rack work with a power steering subframe? Or will I have to switch out my power subrame for manual. I assume both subframes are the same but this is my first time attempting this swap. Thanks in advance.

The subframes ARE different but the only difference is the passenger side mount holes. I've seen others do it by "rigging" it to work, but for my ride I. Went ahead and switched subframes when switching from power to manual.it makes it behave exactly like honda wanted without worrying if it will snap under some loads or anything. While I had it out, I fitted the OEM EK front subframe strengthener.
