you need an outter tie rod end. it is threaded onto the inner tie rod. you loosen up the 17mm or 19mm (i cant remember) jam nut, you separate it from the spindle, count the turns while you rotate it off, reinstall the new tie rod end, and then get an alignment.

power steering gearbox.
i think power and manual should be the same.
i did a search for a 93 si, i dont know what you have but look under power
steering gearbox. should be #17
