Default P100 power steering

Hi Guys. This is my first post so apologies if I am asking something which has already been covered. I have a P100 truck with a 1.8 TD engine which I want to convert to power steering. I gather the saloon rack will be ok but does anyone know what pump I could use? Thanks in anticipation for any advice.

I would look at the mk1 mondeo 1.8TD pump etc, as same engine.

any sierra power steering rack will fit and i would look at 1.8mondeo or possible diesel Sierra's as some of them may have had power steering.

Many thanks both of you. I've just bought a 1.8td pump off ebay(0.99 +p&p!) Now I'll go on the lookout for a suitable rack. Have I read somewhere that the Granada rack is the same? Pity the Ultima's different - I've got an MOT failure!

I'm 99% sure the granny rack is longer than the sierra rack, but worth checking part numbers etc.

Thanks again folks for your posts. I had not been able to locate a Sierra of any kind in local scrappies but Matt has now given me a contact.
Just found out - a guy who is coming to pick up my Scorp which he is buying has got one off a 4x4. Yippee. Thanks again for all your help.
