Re: rack and pinion
I have Mustang 2 type rack on mine and fabbed the rest . My turn radius is way more (wider) than stock but , It drives down the racetrack like a Caddy.

The new front suspension uses the same Mustang II rack and has less than an 1/8" of bump steer. It is just taking too long to come to market with the suspension. Paul Baxter |
