the quaife racks have straight cut teeth in the rack, so are much harder
to turn and drive with than the standard racks, to give quicker return
more caster is needed with them. I fitted one once and took it out aswell,
standard one is much better.

Wow and I thought I had anger management issues! Big Grin

More caster was probably all you needed, bit late now though ....

I guess by now you've taken a look in lajoosh's thread, seems that (after you drill a couple of holes, it now is bolt on.

I Too Run and rally my own car, and only work on it myself. I just felt you didnt even bother to work out why it was causing a problem. Maybe, you were right and it deserved to be turfed. But I run a quaife rack, it was horrible with any sort of sedate caster, now I run almost 7 degrees, its really quite special Smile
