It may be the picture but that looks like its pretty much a direct straight line to the rack. Just thoughts .

Hi Bob
Guess that was quite a poor photo, just a trick of the eye I am affraid.
Here's a couple of better shots of mine.
A rough measure with my angle gauge gives about 10 degrees of deflection.
The shaft looks closer to U2 than it actualy is ( only 4 or 5mm clearance though )
Going to sort that shaft out whe I re visit that particular job.
Poor old girl is starting to suffer living outside under tarps
Will strip her down & put it all away when I get the chance to make some storage space.
I would imagine that the steering shaft more than meets the IVA requirements.
Far as I know, to date all Roadsters have gone through SVA/IVA using the same set up.
