    Re: Steering rack

    Ok so went for it. He who dares !
    taken out 20mm in length and it’s quite a lot tighter turn but still an inch away from torsion support arms.
    will report after next trial.

      1trial in and can report a lot better. Wet trial, ran front tyres at 14psi. Worked very well, no more failing to get round bends. Unfortunately had to retire having ripped off exhaust on tree stump but a good trial anyway. Exmoor clouds. Minehead.

        somewhat off topic but well done. If you would like to start a new thread, your exploits will have greater impact.
        Since you were asking for dimensions, could you not publish exactly what and how you achived your resulting modification. I for one would be curious.
