forgive me for been thick but i have got cortina uprights on the front of my car and a rs turbo manual rack, i fitted steering up and even though its a right hand drive rack left is right and right is left.
i thought everyone used escort racks with the cortina uprights.
is the rs turbo rack diffrant in some way , does it mount to the rear of the hubs .

very puzzled lol

any photos of the set up?
have you got the rack behind the axle line? escort racks are meant to go in front

ooh, wasn't the rs turbo a fwd escort? those racks usually go behind the axle line

Most use an Escort mark 2 rack

Wrong rack rst is a mk3/4 and you want a mk2

The mk4 rack sits the other side of the uprights.
