Thanks Wally, the urethane bushes make an enourmous difference to the handleing of supers!

John, yes that rack I believe is a late 1303 rack fitted to an early 03 (which previously had a steering box).

A friend of mine had looked at fitting an Alfasud rack to his super. His suggestion was to fit it higher than the stock location and use a bracket to mount the central tie rods to so they remain in the same position as they would with the stock steering box, cunning

Actually someone has just pointed out the Ackerman angle thing- I don't know how the factory dealt with it but it could be a lot trickier than it first seems. Ackerman is where the inside wheel turns tigher than the outside wheel- this helps reduce tyre scrb etc http://www.compgoparts.com/technical/001/Ackerman.asp
