I went to the junk yard and removed the steering rack limiters from another rack and then added them to my rack. All you have to do is remove the inside rack boots and then you will see a small white plastic C clip. Just pull it off the shaft and then add in along side of yours. One per side...mine has plenty of clearance now and turns just fine. You won't even notice them other than your wheels won't be rubbing any more. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>NorCalRydaz</b> <br /><small>Member # 3233</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,8,1,19,28,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Look at my stang.
