    RA60 will fit. Although, I think you are looking at it wrong, It need to be longer IN the rack... Not just longer overall. You will most likely find they are the same

    I agree.

    well my setup up is... buddyparts or ajps lock spacer(dno which one i have), power steering arms and stock 86 rack ends....i need to replace my rack ends and i can get brand new ra60s ones cheap, so i thought might as well its jst if they fit or not and whether it gives me more lock or not is bonus?

    these should do the trick mate t3 extra lock steering arms. if you put them on the inner hole you will get more lock. and you wont be turning your rack any further. so it wont over stress the power steering system. It will be slightly heavier though but not enough to worry about. and you can sell your ps arms and with the way the dollar is they are as cheap as chips.

    I "unpower" steeringed my hachi. Yet to drive it, but I got the full AJPS set up in there and the lock is awesome.

    sorry, was more a comment on the assumption that he is trying to increase lock to improve his drifting. He is at a disadvantage in how easy it is to gain lock on the manual rack. No comment on how good pwr stearing is or isnt

    if you dont understand how the t3 arms will improve your lock you need to do more research to be able to get the results your after.

    Its the same situation as the pwr stearing arms on manual rack. The arm is shorter so the arc is smaller. So for the same rack input, the arc will travel closer to the lcam therefor more lock. It will, i think, still increase the load at the stearing wheel though.

    ahh ok well put.
    couldnt tell from the pic until i looked at it closely.


    also, anyone ever tried twin lock spacers on their manual 86 rack.
    so thats a lock spacer on each side?
    just a thought, surely someones thought of it before.
