Hi I have a RCR40 and need to source a single replacement steering tie rod. Anyone know who makes these? RCR website shows that they supply the whole rack and tie rods only. Its approx 10-11 inch long (depends where measured from) and has 1/2 inch thread. Thanks

I have a 302 Ford (Australian motor from an XR8 AUIII Falcon) in my RCR40 which has an issue that occurs only when revs rise above 4000 (approx). This occurs every time, and beyond 4000 rpm the acceleration drops off dramatically and revs rise very slowly. I have a fuel pressure gauge in the...

First drive was today, made it successfully from shed to carport. Oh what a feeling ! Some issues to resolve but still smiling. First issue is that when turning, the front wheel rim hits the top rear suspension before the steering rack gets to the end. [/ATTACH][/ATTACH] Wheels are 18...

I have trial fitted a 302 engine into my RCR40 chassis and when positioned all the way forward, I measure the G50 transaxle centres to be 200mm (8 Inch) from bell housing. By running a string line between the centre of left and right wheel hubs I calculate the gap is 15mm (approx. 5/8 inch)...
