KE10 vs KE70 Tue, 19 April 2005 07:51 Go to next message
Hey
recirc. ball rack and pinion
turning circle 9.3 9.3 9.7 10 10.2 9.5-10.55
turns lock2lock 3.3 3.7 4 3.3 4.1 3.25

Found this, so does this mean if I put KE10 steering into my KE55 it will only have 3.3 turns to lock and will be easier to convert than KE70 rack and pinion?
Thanks
Troy

the steering boxes are a bit different in design, especially around the steering column bit. i doubt it's going to be a bolt in affair

i thought the same thing about my ke25, but after one look at a ke10 steering box (which i had in a spare shell) it went in the too hard basket and the steering box went in the ke10 shell to the crusher

shorter steering arms give quicker turning, perhaps you could change to ae86 power steer arms and struts (still 4x114.3 and 13" wheels) if that's legal

i personally thought the steering in my old ke35 was pretty good from factory Smile

hey SJ
LOL! Too hard basket it is then. I read about the AE86 stuff somewhere but apparently its not legal or something! Any other ideas, I just want to reduce the amount of turns to full lock. lol!
Thanks

KE20 steering column fits in KE20. pitman arms fit, but are different lengths, as are steering arms and tie rod ends.

KE20 is recirc, whereas KE10 is worm and sector.. KE20 is also collap[sible.

you DO NOT WANT KE10 steering in anything, even a KE10.

very.

drill otu the crush tubes to the large rbolt size in the chassis rail, weld up a moutn for the top of the column, in similar way to how the KE20 does (ie allowing the top of the tube to crush down), and then fit KE10 pitman arm.

easy Wink
