Help with Escort steering rack dimension.
Mal - 14/7/03 at 06:52 PM

I am designing a chassis for a mid-engined
layout and will use an Escort mark 2 steering rack.
Since I do not yet have a rack I would be glad if someone will measure the distance between the track rod ball pivot centre points, under the gaters, please. This will allow me to position the wishbone location points.
I am interested in buying a rack.

Hi Mal,
the dim you require for the escort rack (middle section, ctr of ball to ctr of ball) is 580mm, although its a job to measure to the exact mil without taking the rack apart. If you need to extend the arms U2U me. (See my photo archive: Stainless wishbones / rack asssy or For sale/Wanted)

Hope this helps.
Paul.
