  • Rear QA-1's installed/ FE2 rack

    Finally got them installed with help of Meatyshells(thanks again) , The rear QA-1's needed to be modified , the bolt is bigger than stock size(finally found my air grinder bits) and it went quicker. Now I have front and rear QA-1's front set on 5 and rear on 7 they handle very well and look very good(My Blisteins were bad so it mad a big difference). FE2 rack & pinion is alot better the rag joint was shot on my other one sso the knuckle setup and the 14:4 ratio is better, need to get it alligned bad though then I'll give it a real test drive.

      FE2 is the quicker ratio steering rack that came on the Y87 and V8 cars.

          I got my car allighned today , they did a outstanding job, but they are saying their might be something wrong with the pump inside of it(bought it remanufactured so it was all upgraded with brass and not alm. sliding pin and other features, the Co. I bought it from has a good rep), and I feel that it is fine. I have no problems with it , no leaks, no noise and it turns really well. I'm thinking they don't have too man 14:4.1 steering ratios in there , so it feels different to them. Any suggestions/ Comments? Thanks Steve
