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
