Steering Lock/ Steering Rack Questions

[bigm]

Hey Guys.

Background - My Mx73 came factory with powersteering, i didnt want to run that with the SR conversion so ditched that rack. I put my Ke70 one in which was considerably shorter (overall length).

My Front suspension consists of:
- Lock spacer on the ke70 Rack
-T3 MX-ae86 steering arms (Same length as ae86 pwr steer)
- 22mm Longer Control Arms

Im using ke55 Tubes for the tie Rod ends and they are pretty close to being maxed out (due to the rack being shorter)

My question is, is having the shorter steering rack going to affect my lock? Because with the car on the ground i cant get the inside of the tyre past the gaurd? fail.


My next question, what other toyota racks would have a longer overall length but be non-power steering

Thanks guys

you could always use the inside hole on the t3 arms?

I can't see it affecting the steering lock, however I will cause toe in on suspension movement (bump steer)
