....just like my Datsun 240C.....

I like your style! Pics?

The information is extremely handy and thankyou so much for volunteering it Smile

. I wasn't thinking outside the square enough so I was unable to find anything really suitable.

I will be doing some other little mods to the front - like using late 70's Hiace stub axles so I can fit some larger brakes - so hopefully this will still be useful. The Hiace stubs come with slightly longer steering arms so I'm a little uncertain how this will affect things.

nah no pics as yet. i'll have to scan them and drop them onto pbase or something. the shit i had to go thru is unreal - sectioning the crossmember, modding the sump etc. some late nights let me tell you.

the arm length / position shouldn't change anything, it's the radius of the steering arms that introduce bump steer. the only way to know is to get under there with a tape measure, and measure tie rod end to tie rod end. then measure the recirc ball setup you've taken out, rod end to idler arm etc.

and no wukkers about the info. it's taken me MONTHS to get the right rack - ended up with a commodore unit. i've actually ruined a tape measure with all the measuring i've done.
however - i think the fiat rack will be spot on for the Corona 2000. there's a shitload of adjustment in the rod ends too, like 20mm a side.
