Steering rack
Has anyone taken one apart or taken any measurements of its range yet?
I realise I can just take the tie rods out and find out for myself, and I probably will; but interested to know the answer now Lol |

How far the rack can actually go before it runs out of teeth.

Gotcha. By chance, do you know what the thread pitch is for the inner tie rods/steering rack?
I might have found a solution to help get some extra steering angle without having to dish out loads of money for a full knuckle kit. Nothing crazy. Just enough.

Next step is increasing track to allow for more angle before that rubbing occurs. |

http://www.maverick-motorsports.com/...le-rackspacers Between the two, it would be an awesome gain. Not knuckle kit crazy, but enough for any of our needs as grassroots level drivers. I have 15mm spacers up front right now at -3 camber and I'm dead flush. With more steering angle, I'll space out another 10mm and go to like -3.5

Need to increase track. That said, tie rods alone to give a decent increase. |
