Sierra steering rack length?
Hi All
I've had a chassis in the garage now for too many years so figured I should get my finger out and start building again..
One of my issues is a shortened sierra steering rack.
I've had the internals shortened, but the outer ally case has not yet been cut.
My problem is, I can't find the dimensions of the original rack so cant work out by how much I've had the internals shortened by.
Would some kind fellow put a tape across a seirra steering rack and let me know how long it it is?
Total length, centre of ball to centre of ball - what ever...
Cheers
Danro

Just put a tape along one I've got outside and get 125cm end to end.
For ref. the ali casing is 58.5cm long. Does that help?

Where does time go??

That is excellent and with a little luck and determination I'll be using those figures and continuing on this mammoth task of building a car..
