I ordered the Unisteer manual rack and Pinion system today!! :jumping:

Can't wait to get it installed..

I got the same one. easy to install. you will need the shaft kit if it didnt come with one. Mine didnt and they want $260 for it.

Thanks for the reply, I got the rack, shaft kit and the OEM column adapter for $800

I paid $99 for my rack...and it's chrome! Just what my greasy primered pile needs is something shiny. Someday I might even put it in the car.

There's no way you got that new for $99.. And you need more then just the rack to do the install.

Brand new Mustang II chrome rack $99 from Southern Rods and Parts(about 2 years ago); I almost bought a few of them to have in stock. I got my steering arms to convert to front steering from Chassis Engineering for $169. The way mine will be mounted involves trimming the crossmember, so I might do some radical surgery to it while down there.

Then that I understand. This is a bolt in and I don't want to modify anything for this conversion. Good luck with your swap.

Does that come with the pinion housing? Do you need a special column for it to work? I would be very interested on anything you can offer. I dont mind hacking up my frame.

You need to fab up the section between the rack and your existing column.
In this shot you can see a little of how my friend does his--he trims the crossmember and adds a tubular mount for Mustang II style rack. 0 bumpsteer, unlike some of the bolt-on kits.

I was able to find this on a camaro. Is this similar?

 

[slickman]

Does anyone have pics with the unisteer installed in a 3rd gen?

Yes, that's kinda what I'm looking at doing to mine with a removable crossmember.

 

[tymbom]

I wonder how well those arms would work in a Pro-Touring style build?? That would be nice.

Please, give us here on the board some feedback when you do the Uni-Steer install. I'm anxious to hear what others have to say about their products and customer service.
