So, Windy, You mentioned that the steering feel is significantly easier. If the car is sitting, is it easier? Please elaborate. CEEEEEEC
It's not a toy if it takes two people to lift it.

Sitting still the steering is much easier, the rack and pinion transfers the lineal motion much better than a rotating shaft and pitman arm with a lot less stress.

Rack was $300 + 2 universals @ $30 each
Everything else like the bracket & drag link I made.
So really not much more than a Corvair setup.

Windy, That is damn near a bargain. Your skills are obvious. My thoughts are spinning as I plan my remodel.
