the extensions don,t require any fettling at all, just fit the rack ( did you get the MKII Escort rack?), then fit the extensions then fit the TRE,s then adust to set the steering ....
The extensions you currently have....are they the book spec dimensions? if so did they make your wheels steer left & right at the same time? which TRE,s are you using? cheers andy |

the new extensions will fit straight on & will solve the steering /wheel centering
I got all my steering components from RD too, new rack(2.9)/extensions/rack clamps/TRE,s etc etc from RD at stoneleigh last year, all fitted together nicely cheers andy |

I might be wrong (it happened once many years ago lol) but the book extensions are too long, arent they?

Yeah they are too long
I got my book spec ones from 3ge and my car looked like it had been in an accident it had so much toe out on both wheels! I was gonna modify them but the ally ones from saturn and rally design look so much better than the book spec ones and probably a 1/4 of the weight |

what is the crack with this are the book extensions to suit a shortend rack and non book spec (eg.3ge) for a std length rack?
