Re: rack & pinion
I dont have a great pick but here it is installed. My buggy steers from the rear of the front upright. the actual piece I bolted on to the steering box I made from .120" mild steel that was laser cut. here is also a pdf of the piece. the two holes close together bolt to the rack, with some small pieces of tube so the bolts dont crush it. the holes farther away are for the rack ends. you can see that the tie rods have a lot of leverage on the rack. this makes it very important to get a good rack. my rack was kind of sloppy so I had to machine some clearance out of it, I'm sure it will wear back in and I'll have to do it again. I would go with a better rack.
