Thread: 8 in C to C Steering Rack

  1. #1
    Ok, so I found this steering rack with the 8 in center to center that I need, but I can't find any good information on it. Anyone dealt with these guys before/ have any advice one way or another?

    Also, does anyone know of any other options in the 8 in C to C range?

    We used the 14" version of that rack on our baja cars. Lasted 3 years in very abusive baja service. By the end of the last year it was starting to slip (pinion or rack was worn and would jump/skip teeth). Good rack for the price, but do yourself a favour and change out the supplied rod ends for some good ol aurora chromoly's. The ones that come with the rack are made out of chinesium and last about 30 seconds.

    Chinesium. That is my favorite word ever now! Thank you for enriching my life with that one

    Wish I could take credit for that line, but I can't. Understandably once you hear it you can't not borrow it

    Chinesium is now also my new favourite material. It is way cooler than Unobtanium.

    Cheers
