i got the rack onto the car finally and everything is hooked up and ready to go. now when i turn the wheel (car is still on stands) it seems like the wheel only turns like 1-1.5 full turn(s) lock to lock. anyone know what might be up?

Do the tires look like they are turning all the way in and out?? The manual racks have a better turning ratio than PS racks have so the manual rack is gonna be a lil different than the stock unit...

I put a manual rack in my third gen when I got the k-member. My steering is the
same way, when I took it for a ride the turning radius was decreased a lot! I think the manual racks have less travel. Guess you have to use rear steering now, turn the wheel and floor it!
