Service label location 200 1988

is on the opening for the trunk lid, right side corner. Use a flashlight, maybe. It will have a number of lines and columns with codes for names brands of components.

The line for steering gear will have a 2 or a 3. 2 = CAM, 3 = ZF.

Of course, that's the equipment from the factory. A PO may have changed things.

Also, look at the boots on the tie rods. On a CAM, the boot hole for the tie rod is just large enough for the rod. On a ZF, the boot closes onto a disc mounted on the tie rod.

After any front suspension work it is recommended to have a front wheel alignment. Therefore you should check for other parts needing replacement, such as tie rod ends, both tie rods, and ball joints.

Good Luck,

Bob
