also please someone who has removed the rack and pin before on a manual. Did you have to remove the b1tch pin/spring clip out of the linkage to take out the rack and pin? or could u wiggle it out with the linkage in place?

Please help.

When I removed my rack and pinion,I Just removed the cross joint below the steering column. Whole rack with the pinion shaft attached came out whole. You have to disconnect driver side steering arm, right side ball joint, exhaust piping and of course the bolts holding the rack in place.Pull the rack out on the driver side. Some wiggling ang turning and push/pull back n forth will make it come out. I just cant remember the exact order of events, you'll figure that out when you're under the car. Others prefer to remove the subframe to do it. By the way, its a 96 civic ,manual rack. Im not sure if its exactly the same as a 92 civic.
