Yeah sorry K4KEV..
I'm trying to darken it a bit with all the black panels and other stuff I have planned...
Hi John I took a couple of photos of my pedal travel, why do you think there is a problem?
There is a fair bit of adjustment with the standard cable setup just before the throttle boddy on the original MX5 cable.... You got me worried now...
On the down side of things you were right about the amount of steering lock.
I have the same problem as you regarding as the extension hitting the wishbone.....bugger...
Like yourself I am going to fit some sort of steering limiter which will help with the self centreing for the IVA.
I've had a look around and there is nothing for the Ford Escort steering rack but there is kits for the Ford Focus with 18 inch wheels and Fiesta I believe.
MNR fit a 5mm wheel spacer to the hub to stop the steering ball joint hitting the rim.
I was thinking of getting a ally spacer bush made up in two halves with a jubilee clip to pull the two halves together. Each spacer would have a lip to just clear the jubilee width if you understand what I mean.
I was also thinking about altering the extension itself in regards to thinning it down a bit with the MX5 ball joint only being 12mm thread.
I will see how that goes.
Out of curiousity how wide were your plastic steering rack stops?
