    Hi John, Sounds like you've got an interesting project. It's a long time since I fabricated my rod change (this thread is 17 years old!) & things have probably moved on since. However I think you will struggle to find a 'bolt-on' solution & whichever way you go you may need to make some...

    GTD Steering rack mounts

    Thanks Fred, that's a great idea. I've had a look at a spare rack & your idea makes a lot of sense, not sure I can fit the rack in my little Myford though :) I'll give the Powerflex bushes a go & see if I get any improvement, if not I'll start making swarf! Thank you to everyone for your...

    Andy, 12000 miles in 5 years ! That's fantastic, you're obviously getting a lot of use out of the car & that amount of miles is a testament to the build quality. Great work :) Kind regards Julian
