Relocating the steering rack is expensive and in some cases just not possible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis product converts what are normally an 18mm inner tie rod thread to a 16mm inner tie rod thread which is a much more common size (such as S-chassis, Skylines etc.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to converting to a more common tie rod thread this rack spacer set offers a grand total of 16mm of rack travel equating to around 12-15 degrees of extra lock without compromising on the amount of thread left in the steering rack. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSOLD AS A PAIR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- DIY installation \u003cbr\u003e- CNC machined high tensile zinc coated 4130 steel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE: will not work with OEM tie rods.

It allows the steering rack to travel an extra (16mm). That extra 16mm (5\/8\") of rack travel gives approximately 12-15 degrees more lock (assuming you have adequate clearance elsewhere). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eI've installed the rack spacer and I've got a heap of toe in, what happened?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter you have centred your rack (this is CRUCIAL) you will need a wheel alignment. You may also need need to either trim your inner tie rods down to counteract the length that you've just put into the length of the rack or go to an inner with more adjustment. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you need to trim the tie rods down depends on your setup. Do NOT trim too much off or else you'll need to get a new tie rod and only trim down once you've centered the rack. Note that the LH side has a larger spacer so it will need the most attention.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"desc-no-tab\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"block-template--17511439958316__74d69bdf-8fca-47df-a827-03de5d6c63df-10b8d2ec-5527-41af-a9e8-7ac95ba16c29\" class=\"desc-no-tab\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVEHICLE COMPATIBILITY\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vehicle-display\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vehicle-specs\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWill not work with OEM tie rods.
