Escort mk2 racks

[Lunner]

Does anyone have access to one of these, and just how different to the clio ones are they, manual ones that is, can they be modded to fit a clio?

[clowo16v]

I had one will try and find out how wide the pivot points are.

[Justin..]

whats special about them ?

[Lunner]

Cheers mate, also the mounting points if poss?

[clowo16v]

Yep.

They're easily avialable and you can get quick racks.

I can get reconditioned mk2 racks for about £25 btw.

Exactly, quick racks was what i was after and they dont' look a million miles different to the clio manual racks

[Winston]

Im going to start looking in R5 Turbo circles ...or maybe the R5 turbo rack is quicker than the bogo clio item

I need the manual rack to have the same turning spec etc as a Williams rack

[Lunner]

Manual rack compared to a std valver item is about 1/2 a turn longer lock to lock, dunno how that compares to a williams item

Looking at pics of it as long as dimentions are similar shoudl be a piece of piss to mount up and use an escort mk2 rack

[clowo16v]

Ive got my mate to measure one he's sending them tomorrow as im not at home. Its the pivot points that are critical as if these are different you'll get bump steer.

ok, cheers
