Caption: Figure 6.

Overlays of radio contours on drizzled infrared images (grayscale) in the F160W filter with the HST Wide Field Camera 3. The radio contours are the same as in Figure 1. Even without subtracting galaxy models or point source functions for the quasar cores, there are very few detections of kpc-scale jet emission. For 0144−522, the kpc-scale jet is observed within the profile of the bright host galaxy and in 0859+470, there is a possible feature associated with a knot about 1″ from the core to the northwest. Galaxy-subtracted images of 0144−522 and 0508−220 are shown in Figures 7 and 10.
