FAQ
Do I need to buy 1 of these rack spacers or 2?
You only need to buy 1 as it's not possible to run 2 unless you're running near zero ackerman (probably unlikely)
How does this steering rack spacer work?
The steering rack spacer screws between the steering rack and your passengers side tie rod. It allows the steering rack to travel an extra 13mm's while the washer which is to be installed on the drivers side allows for an additional 6mm's of travel. Giving a grand total of 19mm's of additional steering rack travel = more lock.
I've installed the rack spacer and I've got a heap of toe in, what happened?
You need to trim your passengers side tie rod down around 13mm's to counteract the extra 13mm's that you've just put into the length of the rack. Do NOT trim too much off or else you'll need to get a new tie rod.
What's the difference between this screw on steering rack spacer and the lock washers that you sell?
The steering rack spacer gives in total an additional 19mm's of travel where as the lock washers only offer 12mm's of travel (6mm's each)
4130 High Tensile Offset Steering Rack Extenders
The GKTECH high tensile 4130 zinc coated offset tie rod extenders screw on to the end of either standard or aftermarket tie rods and allow the tie rods to travel further into the steering rack which creates more steering lock with the added bonus of moving the tie rod position forward 25mm's which helps reduce steering bind. Great for drift or getting out of parking spots. The offset rack spacers are a great alternative to moving the steering rack forward and offer 17mm's extra lock without compromising on the amount of thread left in the steering rack.
