TurboRA28 Forums Junkie Location: Terrigal Registered: May 2002	Rack'n'Pinion for RA28 Thu, 04 September 2003 00:12 Hi all, while im re-vamping the front suspension and possibly brakes in the Celica I'm also toying with the idea of setting it up with rack n pinion. Reason for it is even with reconditioned steering components (tie rods, idler arm, pitman arm) the steering is still sloppier than i'd like it. Also the ratio sux. Plus a few cracks developing around where the steering box sits. Hmm and to have steering that even somewhat resembles my AE86 i'd be very happy! So with all of the above I think I can justify the work, cost and R&D that'll go into putting rack n pinion steering in. I realise it isn't going to be an easy job and hope to setup most of it off the car so it isn't off the road for too long. Would like to buy another crossmember, control arms, steering knuckles, column etc and get most of the tricky stuff done out of the car then bolt it all in. I already have a TA23 crossmember in the car that should help out as it bends around to the back of the car for a front mounted sump. Makes mounting the rack Much easier! I've done lots of searching around for info on it and found lots of stuff that needs to be seriously considered when designing it such as bump steer and getting all the angles correct. My first main question is though i've heard of KE70 racks being used, as well as Mazda 323 racks? I had a look at pick n payless and heaps of KE70 cars with steering still complete out there. Anyone know why some people pick the Mazda 323 racks? Thanks Joel [Updated on: Thu, 10 March 2005 04:02] [Report message to a moderator]
