The power steering lines going to rear steer have been discontinued by Dodge, and only some of the pieces are available with Mitsu.
Have one sitting here right now - which has been refused by TWO dealerships. Time to see a fabricator.
I hate when things get older - as these challenges will only increase, not disappear...

Time for some SS braid lines?
If my next 3/S has AWS, I've already looked into the AWS delete parts which are < $75 from the dealer (the are still available according to brookdale). At the same time, I'd be purchasing a remanded FWD steering rack from autozone for about $250.

I guess we could do that - he wants to keep the rear steer...
Did you consider just capping the lines leading to the rear, instead of purchasing an N/A rack?
Time for someone to start making a kit for this - I'm sure it won't be the only car needing it.

Yes. The only reason I brought it up was most cars around the 100K mark usually have a leaking rack, boots are torn open, or the rack-n-pinion has worn to where it's not as responsive anymore.
That's all.
