What other steering racks are used in a 7?
Apart from the usual escort or sierra racks, what other donor cars are sometimes used? The reason i ask is mine looks different to all the escort
ones ive seen (doesnt have the oval plate with 2 screws) and as far as i can tell sierra racks seem to have the mounting lugs cast into the casing, is
that correct? I want to buy some alloy rack clamps, car is a tiger avon, but its an early one made by phoenix. Thanks

Going by ebay pics, i wouldnt say it was a nova rack, but poss a spitfire one? It has a big hexagonal hole in the top of it, maybe about 15-20mm

Oh right, i see. it has the same dimensions as far as i can tell and the escort/sierra u/j fits, so that could be the case. Thanks
