ok so i was able to get my whole front end ( HD-offraod rack and pinnion 36, arms, beam, through rod, arms, shocks, combo spindles, IH Tie rods) for 1600...now I have my brakes and wheels in the UPS truck on the way to my casa!...on to the real issue... what i was thinking.... Tilt steering housing and Steering Quickner to 2:1 and the right amount to ujoints and steering shafts.... is this a good setup or what should i do...i mean the rack is new... so i figured i would try this before i go with power steering... |

i tried the steering quickener with rack and pinion, it sucks. it ripped out of your hand everytime you hit a rock and when you do get stuck and your wheels are against something, you dont have enough power to turn the wheels. i even tried it with power steering, but it tries to turn the steering box faster than the hydrolics can move it, and it binds up. dave |

Does the box come with a short shaft and "U" joint ? If not you will need a "U" joint at its Pivot point. DUBclub wrote: ok so im better off just going without and then upgrading to PS later? also what about the tild box is that aight to go with and how do you set up those with a steering shaft?

Instead of a quickner I made a 3" longer Pitman arm on my Powersteering conversion. And yes I moved the box accordingly guys. |
