From looking at the pictures, your pivot point on the steering arm is pretty far inward from the pivot point on the intersection between the lower and upper control arm mounts. You may want to weld an extension on the rack to move the pivot point closer to the A-arm mounts. In its current configuraton, it looks like you are going to have excessive bump steer. Those sweet units are the cats ass though. Nice piece.
      The Extreme subframe was designed to use that rack. I’m sure the bumpsteer spec is published somewhere or you could call Speedtech.
