If you dont change them the turning circle is reduced drastically ,best to use them.

Hi Jvanner.
The later non-power steer arms are 28mm longer & they make a huge different to toe-out-on-turn geometry.
What model do you have, you may not need to change them? You form nickname is Jvanner. If you have an HJ, most HJs (up to 3/76) have the shorter arms, power steer or not.
You only have to worry about the possibility of having the longer arms if your car is non-power steer built after 3/76. Also many GTSs after that date got the short arms.
