Message	It was a flaming river omni rack (the only rear steer rack they make) shortened 2" to keep stock pivot points, then I needed to mod the steering shaft, also heim joints and sleeved to connect the tie rod ends to the joints. The rack has to be shifted significantly to the DS to clear the turbo so the tie rod has to be shortened on that side, and you need a pretty good size sleeve on the PS to connect the heim to the tie rod. It's a fair bit of work, but I like the feel of the rack. Obviously it's a little harder when the car is stationary, but moving it feels great, much better than juts taking the belt off the OEM rack ---------------------------------
