Solutions for tighter steering
#6
My steering is still tight but I was thinking of doing the bjs, bushings, tie rod ends and maybe a rebuilt rack b/c the above parts have 108k and I am a hypochondriac lol.

I have 135k miles on the original rack but have replaced the outer tie rods and ball joints many thousands of miles ago, well before the steering slack started.

I had slop in my steering wheel and ended up tightening the last bolt before the shaft goes into the rack (I think it's a 10mm or 11mm... I forget now) and that completely took all the slack out of the steering.

^^^I WISH that there were a quicker ratio, bolt-in rack for our cars, but no, sadly there is NOT.
I was going to contact Flaming River at one point, since they do custom, one-off fabrications for many, but I gave up on that idea, thinking do I REALLY need a $5K+ steering rack?!
BTW, Woodward, a race steering company REFUSES to do anything bolt-in for our rides.
