I have an 82 245 with worn out inner and outer tie rods. I've got a part 90 245 with good tie rods. The 82 has a ZF rack and the 90 has a CAM rack. I'm wanting to swap the entire rack with inner and outer tie rods. Is there any problems with this idea?
As far as I know the outer tie rods are the same regardless of year or type of rack. I think the power steering hoses are the same size too.

It seems like it would just be a matter of loosening the outer tie rods front the rest of the front suspension. Disconnect the p/s lines from the rack. Then unbolt the old rack and bolt in the new rack.

Am I missing anything? What else needs to be considered?

Thanks
