Buddy's ranger

ok so here is the thing - can a 1994 4cyl. ranger not have power steering?
and can it pass safety without it?
looking at my 95 in comparison, the 94 has a SPOT for it but the belt is just a short one - it runs like a dream but just wondering

it's rare, but theres some out there up to '97 without power steering

as a former owner of a non power steering 4x2 ranger, they're not that hard to turn with the stock tiny tires as long as you're moving, with the 31x10.50's I'm glad I have power steering now though...

k so we are about to start tearing into this thing and i was wondering, how hard is it to put in a power steering system for him? is it easier to just go to a wreckers and get the whole front steering set up outta a 93-97 ranger with the 2.3L? or should i just get the hydraulic parts (like the pump lines etc..). wouldn't all the basics be the same, like tie rod and steering shaft etc??

you would have to get the pump and steering box, just disconnect the steering linkages from the pitman arm, the steering linkages should be the same, should be simple and straight forward
