Re: manual steering conversion.

In order to answer the question, we need to know the year and model of the car you are asking about.

Re: manual steering conversion.

yes an S10 manual box will bolt right in to your 92. You will have to use the pitman arm from the camaro.

When you do so, check for cracks in the frame, this is a common problem on the 3rd gen cars.
