MK Spec R steering
In the early phases of building an Mk Spec R, I have a question regarding the steering rack. I've been using the "search" for a
while but I'm still confused.
As I understand correct, the sierra rack is too long and should be cut. Do they cut the rack or also the housing and how much?
I also read about an escort rack that shouldn't be cut.
Which solution did you use/recommend ?

I thought that shortening the rack was part of the deal when you bought an Indy ?
Speak to MK.

Both the rack,and housing{body} are shortend on the donor"SIERRA" steering rack to fit the MK Indy R chassis,this reworked rack is
supplied with the Indy R kit,although there may be a small surcharge if you have not supplied them with a donor rack,also if you require a quick rack
there is also additional charge.

Here's a picture of mine. They cut out a section and welded in another, and fitted a quick rack at the same time for me. I supplied the original
rack.
The measurement is from where the lip for the gaitor just start.

Finally back on the job!
