Phantom of the Opera
Sorry guys, I"d be paranoid as a mother effer over them thing handing up in some shituation.....I see nothing but problems,....chancy though with my rack install, but it did work out...so far....I look at it lots though.....
paranoia reigns supreme.....
:harhar::bonkers:
A rack and pinion works exactly like this. The rod slides in and out of the rack with bushings and seals.
With 10's of millions of rack and pinions on the road, do you hear about any "handing up" (which I assume means binding)?
Yeh, but the rack is one piece inside a tube, with a slot in it....adding another rod with two purchase points on it, and expecting it to track well from a single ended purchase is something I cant visualize happening too well, and as said before, securing both ends and with a unknown for frame twists, and crap in a racing situation, I can't see it as viable solution,
I just compromised hell out of my install with the long tie rods, maybe so, but they work well, and certainly less bump than stock, and bump was obviously not considered in the OEM design....so a improvement was made....enough....I did not like putting any ackerman loading? twist on that rack output that it was not designed to take, and a ~4" on one side and ~6" on the other, is a bit much methinks....compared to my nearly stock centered adaptor....
