I'm not sure what "been floated" means. However if the rack was due to you a few days ago then it must already have been built. So why do they now need the dimensions again? It sounds like you are getting a real run around.

However, if you ever get it sorted tell them to keep a record of everything because they would sell a few at that price without exchange.

They sayed that they need the dimension B without the extension pieces because these pieces can vary.

when I say floated I mean that a lot of water gone into they workshop because of the rain. Sorry about my spelling (I am greek you see...)
I am not really sure what is going on but I am expecting that the following week the rack will be here. Just need that dimension.

I´ll probably have to correct my measurement. Again this is a guess as I have the extension rods mounted. But it´s 970mm to where the extension rods starts and atleast 20mm goes in on either side. So total it would be 1010mm.

But remember it´s a guess

thanks jonte appreciated
Anybody else which can give an accurate measurement for this dimension? If nobody else replies I would have to go with an estimate and put in danger all this wait for a part which in the end wont fit.
Thanks in advance again!

I think you have been more than patient. Have you asked MK to make you up a 2.4 rack? You can buy a 2.4 sierra rack from Demon Tweeks which would need shortening etc but they have them made all the time with the 2.8 so it should not be a major problem to them.

all i can do is appologise we have been flooded three times and lost some of the building roof twice

we still haven't received any proper dimensions for the rack,
so not particularly happy sending something that is based on a guess
as in my experience it will end in disaster
i.e it wont fit

all we asked for was correct dimensions, which we still haven't received

cheers

Who can specify the correct dimensions then?
As I mentioned since the beginning my car is 2000 miles away and even if I had my car infront of me I wouldn't be able to take the right dimensions because I would face the same problem that everybody else here is facing... We all have our exptension rods on so my guess will be an estimate aswell.
The question is, have you ever made another quick rack for an MK before? If yes use the dimensions you used the previous time.
If not then we have a problem because this thread running for more than 3 months and nobody was able to give accurate dimensions why would it be in the future?
Thanks in advance

MK. But do not email them. Ring if you have a question. Not having realised they didn't have accurate dimensions I think MNR's response is fair as it will end in disaster if it's not measured right.

Yes I can understand MNR's prespective that is why I am still interested on getting this rack from them, if I wouldn't understand them I would ask for a refund long time ago.
I thought that MNR fabricating quick racks all the time including racks for MKs I did not knew that a special fabrication on individual orders is required.

I asked today for a refund of my money from the quick steering rack I ordered 3 months ago and never received due to lack of dimensions.

Sorry I forgot to update yes the rack is here ages ago.
I have not fit it to my car yet and I wont fit it until july I am afraid I will update then.
It looks good but I wont be able to express an opinion until I fit it.
