sierra mx5 combination
Hi Guys,
Does anyone see any issues with using an mx5 steering rack with xr4ti (sierra) uprights and steering column ? Escort Mk 1 & 2 parts not available this side of the pond !! I can get a new quick ratio mx5 rack for $50 which I think is a pretty good deal. I have some new xr4ti track rod ends which could be adapted via the correct threads on the rack extensions. Cheers Nigel

The MX5 rack is about 7" too long for a roadster/locost so its quite a bit of work to shorten it.
Heres an example. Cheers Stot

Thanks for the reply, I guess I'll keep on looking for a while, the wife might be going to the UK later in the year, I may have her pick up an escort rack & save the $125 on shipping !!
Cheers Nigel

Its probably worth asking the LocostUSA guys what they are using? Theres bound to be something that will fit without (much) modification.
Cheers Stot
