      Unisteer Rack and Pinion

      I have a Unisteer power rack and pinion for sale, model number 8010540-01-01. It is unused other than an initial mount in my 69 Camaro for test fitting all parts. It wouldn't work with my LS3 swap and headers so I am going back to a quick ratio box. It also includes two steering knuckles, a trimmed steering shaft and the solid steering shaft adapter.

      Make me an offer.

      You have to use the double jointed steering linkage and even then with the Doug's headers I have the PS hit the rubber boot. I could have made it work but it would have entailed quite a bit more work, time and money. This is all new to me so I decided to go with what I knew would fit.

      I just had the same issue. We moved the rack towards the driver side about a 1/2", which created enough space for the linkage to clear. Plus, the steering lines sat awful close to the block. Moving it fixed both issues.

      if this is for 1st gen Camaro, you can use the BBC engine stands and they will offset the engine 3/4" to passenger side and help with fitment.

      I bought this same setup and had to return it to Summitt. Can you send me pics of how yours is setup? I may go back and buy again. 6783537001

      Next time I see my car, I will. Its in body and paint right now. Basically, we made some brackets to move the rack a 1/2" to the driver side, making sure there was still plenty of room to turn full lock both ways. It may turn slightly further to the driver side, but it hasn't been aligned yet either. Moving it over a half inch gave us plenty of room for the lines and steering linkage to work with Dougs 1 7/8th headers.

      No clue, in a wait and see mode right now.
