 Steering Column to Rack Hey All, after fighting with my gears last week it is now time to move onto the steering column. I think it is a dolomite column i have however the rack is a mini one. Both end in splined ends. Is there a joint or other method of attaching these two together? If so where can I purchase them? I've googled it but since i'm not really sure what part i'm looking for i don't know if i'm getting anywhere.
Cheers
Marty

Re: Steering Column to Rack I stuck a copy of the build manual here. http://www.scribd.com/doc/14462882/Build-ManualWhich says:- Quote: There are 2 universal joints on the Dolomite Column. Disregard the longer one connected to the column. but use the smaller one (Rubberised) to connect the column spine to the steering rack Pic on page 26.

Re: Steering Column to Rack In my opinion you are better off using one of the actual needle roller UJ's instead of the rubber coupling and my advice would be to use the forged steel coupling rather than the pressed steel one. http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/steering-uni ... -923-p.aspThey are more compact that the rubber coupling and much longer lasting.
