That is your rack and pinion. AKA your steering conrols. A CV joint is like a u-joint in the driveline. It rotates and has the ability to turn side to side 90 degrees of the rotating shaft. Your rack and pinion doesn't rotate just moves side to side. Hope that better explains things for ya.

Ok guys so I am starting to have a hyd. problem with my car, after high RPM run, esp if the car has been driving for a while, the pedal becomes weak and sometimes it will even stick down for a second. I ussually notice and stop what I am doing and it will go back to normal, or when it has stuck for a second I pump it a few times and it seems to work normally again. I looked at the fluid and it is pretty dark. I have read a lot about this issue and know they are known to have problems. I am wondering what your experiance have been with it and its cure.
So far I have read many things can fix it, starting with: changing fluid, bleed system, drill mod, new master cyclinder (tick or mcleod seems to be what most do esp tick) and sometimes can be issues with slave and or clutch. The car has 40,000 miles on it and is stock and only has the problem occasionally.

oh ok I see. Yeah that helps alot!! I know what a cv joint is, but I gues I don't know enough..lol...so I get this poping sound somtimes when I turn right. I'm thinking it's the rack and pinion or wheel bearings, cause I can feel and hear alittle vibration coming from that side.

well I don't know if it will help. My brothers truck has that same problem but it really bad. Driving down the road and come to a stop light and the damn clutch gets stuck on the floor board. You have to pull it up with the tip of your shoe to release it..lol.. He found out he has bad air bubbles in his lines, just has to bleed it.. If your fluid is dark then I would change it and bleed it out real good then go from there. Hope it helps alittle.

If it only does it after a high rpm run, I would think it's probably a pressure plate issue.

Thanks for the input guys, yea it seems to be only after high RPM like heat/stress related. I was going to start with the fluid as you said just had not got a chance yet, I was going to start by just sucking the fluid out of the resovoir, then drive it some, or even just pump the clutch a bunch and then see how it looks, repeat and go from there.
Mike which master are you running with your set up?

Good to hear that the stock one is working good for you, hopefully i will be able to just change the fluid and maybe bleed it and it will start working better.
mike how is your project going?

I need a clutch. Which clutch do you guys suggest? I don't mind it being a PITA to drive, I had the textraila And liked it but it's about to the end of its life. Slips in 4th-6th on street tires. Not wanting to run slicks on it. What do you guys suggest?

It's going ok but I'm waiting on parts now. The narrowed rearend should be here Monday. Was supposed to be here this week but it was delayed,,,, yet again. Once that gets here I can check the fitment of the new 28x10.50-15 ET Drag slicks and see where I need to trim, or use the BFH on the inner fendwell. Never did get it mini-tubbed like I wanted to so it's not gonna be slammed on the ground like I wanted it. Maybe next year? Should hook like a **** though.
The final parts for the rollcage should be here tomorrow so that I can finish up the door bars. Then it's just reassembling the dash/interior.
Got some other cars to work on soon. Once they're finished up I can start on assembling the engine and get it in the car. Then I'll need to tune it and run some shakedown passes at PIR.
