A Body Rack and Pinion Converison

Ive got a 2001 dakota v6 that is rotting away with a bad motor no trans would that rack work? it's power but i wouldnt mind converting back to power steering for rack steering :P

The only difference would be the hoses and shielding them .
Pump pressure may be a factor too.
I have a 86 Dakota power rack to put in mine but haven't made any progress.
For you to do power r&p first and show me would be great. LOL
