Would anyone be interested in Wide angle kits for 86-88 Manual racks?
 

I bought a super angle kit awhile ago and have decided to go to a manual rack....problem is I got myself a 86-88 rack which has a different size thread on the passenger side then the driver side. Now I am going to take my angle kit down to a machine shop in the near future and get a quote for special spacers just for the passenger side? Would anyone else want to get in on this? If so I will simply have the machine shop crank out a few extras.

sorry to differ from original question of the thread but would you mind telling me how the super angel kit effects daily driving?

why does one side have a different thread that the other?

On the 86-88 manual rack only are the left and right side inner tie rods different. Don't aske me why its pritty dumb.

Im interested

Ok i just went to a local machine shop and they are going to turn me out a prototype Passenger side spacer for the manual rack. Once I get mine and make sure it fits and if the cost is right I will see about getting more made. Just let me know so I can get an idea of how many I will have to have made....There is also a chance it might not be cost effective but I wont know that until I get mine.

I been looking for something like this for a very long time. But truthfully i probably wont buy it.

LOL at least I know their is interest. Haven't I bought parts off you before Felix?

I am extremely interested if it works great. stefancabral@gmail.com is my email.

I check email daily, and I will most likely forgot to check this post.

Any news on this?

Yeah actually I had one made and already have it installed. The adapter for the manual rack passenger side is silver the one from mazdatrix for the driver side and power steering rack is gold. You will have to replace your passenger side tie rod with one from the power steering rack or another from the driver side manual rack. Since there just wasnt enough room in the spacer to use the larger thread size without damaging the integrity of the piece.

Any plans on getting a few made so I can purchase one?

What could be done if Guys are using a Depowered rack?

I can get the passenger side ones made for 75 + shipping so ~80 bucks....i spent 135 for mine...but I paid for all the cad work and the machine programing....Im not looking to make a kit...but I can get as many of the passenger adapters as you guys want....Then you could just get the mazdatrix/supernow/ect kit.

You can just get a set from mazdatrix its under super steering angle comes with a bump steer kit.

Ill take one

Thumpher got one from me. I think I will start a group by in the future. I dont make anything off these. In fact I actually lost money on the one I sold to thumper....I lost like 1$.....If I start a group by thread Ill post it in here as well.

How much of a spacer is it?

Its the exact same amount of space as the mazdatrix/supernow/ect kits.

It is made to replace the spacer on the passenger side to allow the kits to work on a 86 to 88 manual rack. So you need the adapter, a power steering tie rod inner, and the mazdatrix or other brand wide angle kit.

can you still get these made? i need one!

Yeah You can. Hit up Zak Abercrombie of Abercrombie Knuckles.

Ill have to get ahold of my machine shop but yes I should be able to get them. I cant remember if the price changed or not so I will have to check. To save me some running around I would like to get a few people to order all at once so I dont have to keep ordering them 1 by 1.

I'm very interested as well, please keep me posted.

Nice, someone finally made what we need in order to use the super angle kit on the manual rack! (old thread but still) If i ever stop daily driving my fc i will pm you for the part. Good luck on the group buy, i think its a great.

It would be nice to Pull a Super U turn.
