Thread: JDrach's 98 Daytona - Snappin chains 4 days

I'll have to go do some searching I forgot what website it was that had it.

Bingo..

If you're getting a rack done get new tierods at the same time they will have to align it anyway.

And ported heads go nicely with a new rack.

Ya i'm going to try and do everything within the same week or so.
And Josh will you ever give that a rest

New swaybar, moog tie rods, rack and pinion and power steering fluid. Drives smoother and turning is easy and smooth now. No vibration or shuddering when the TQ converter is locked under heavy load. Woot

good stuff

Rides slightly better than before. So I'm happy.

Also, what Front mount setup should I run? Polly square mounts and regular bushings?

Poly all

I heard Polly all will rattle your brains

Pfft.. I have full Polly uppers

Think I'll get them from intense.

That's where mine came from

Question: after a change in rack
and pinion, is there a break in period for it? The top half of steering left or right ( like 45*) feels ever so slightly tighter than beyond that degree of turning the wheel. The alignment feels spot on, the car stays straighten but like trying to turn or change lane with one hand feels some what tighter than say beyond 90* of turning the wheel.

you bleed the air out?

wheels off the ground, car off, turn the wheels lock to lock 15 times. should clear it out.

Ported heads might help too...

Josh omg lmao
so jack the car up and go left and right til maximum turn 15 times? This bleeds the air out of what?

the rack, and the p/s pump lines. i did it cap off. it burped out the top. then i had to top it off a bit here and there.

I did that and it's still not as loose when initially turning as i thought. Idk what it could be
