Hi BTK, Astro vans use a steering box,they do not have rack and pinion steering.

Customer replied 1459 days and 2 hours ago.

I would like to change mind other to rack and pinion.

First you need to find a company that offers a conversion kit.What year astro do you have?To try to piece a rack and pinion set up together would require quite alot of equipment and time.

I have a 1997 Chevy Astro Van.

Ok,have checked 5 different companies that build conversion kits and none offered one for an astro van.Its possible that one of the companies could custom build a unit but expect to pay a heafty premium on price.Google rack and pinion conversion kits and contact the companies direct for the possibilitys.Thanks,Dave
