Rally design do them for £86.90 delivered not much of a saving but it all counts.

Hi Bob
I get a little concerned when I see a steering rack described as Escort Mk1 / Mk2 The Mk1 rack has imperial threads meaning that the rack extensions will have to made to suit. No big deal if you are making your own but a real problem if you have already bought the usual metric extensions ;) It looks very much as if the Rally Design 2.9 rack is a tad cheaper :) http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product...ducts_id=10557 At least with the Rally design rack you'll know it is definately a Mk2 Escort rack with metric rod ends. |

Hi Bob
You can get the rack extensions from a number of places :) Rally Design do them , Saturn do them, I think Tallon has them at times & Dave oxley on ebay quite often has them listed. Some are alloy & others are mild steel so that's the first choice you have to make You'll have to jog my memory on donor cars, Sierra or MX5 but be aware I am almost certain sure that the book length extensions are too long ;) I have a feeling that the book car used a shortened Escort rack & needed longer extensions ( Sure someone will confirm that for definate ) On my own Sierra based build I had to shorten the book spec extensions. Rally Design & Saturn do the correct length alloy ones, I expect if Phil is doing a batch of mild steel ones, he will make sure that they are the correct length. Hope that is of some help :) |
