**whitestalker89** · 7-10-08, 12:54

how would i know if i had a 4ws mx6?

Uh, probably the presence of a REAR POWER STEERING RACK. Duh.

We should come up with a "How do you know if you have 4WS" sticky, have pictures and other oddities that are with the 4WS model; like the power steering pump, rear steering rack, gas tank, lower cross member support, RSTB, wheels, steering wheel, etc.

It should really be painfully obvious if you have 4ws or not, if you know anything about anything about your car. (Or cars in general)

I dont think there is any difference between the power steering pumps in 4ws and non-4ws model.

I really never checked that since i had my car ... and my other 6's were no gt's so i knew that they were not equiped with 4ws

Well 1st youd see it says 4WS on the steering wheel. And on the trunk. And has a RSTB.

the rstb came in all gt's as far as i know ...and your right about the steering wheel but i completly forgot about that.

90-92, or was it 91-92 GT's have the RSTB, not the 88-89 GT's, only 4WS of those years had the RSTB stock.

Not in 88 or 89, unless you had 4WS.

OHH HO HO... but there is, the 4ws pump is huge in comparison.

gureno · 7-11-08, 6:22

i cant live with out my 4WS. well i mean i could, but then driving wouldnt be as fun.

and yeh it shouldnt be to hard to figure out that you have 4ws

stock6 · 8-13-08, 8:57

what about the extra oil tank thats at the front near the right strut tower isn't that the oil reservoir for the 4WS?

defiler · 8-13-08, 9:05

Um, what? Are you thinking of an ABS reservoir, or the clutch master?

**jphillips626** · 8-13-08, 9:10

I don't know why we would need a sticky for this. Maybe right under the sticky for how to check your blinker fluid

**carcenomy** · 8-23-08, 3:34

I would have thought the biggest giveaway to the average layman was the fact that the car felt different when turning, and that there's a 4WS light in the dash that lights up when you start the car. Not to mention the rack in plain view from behind
