I'm going for reliability, so when fitted everything at the front end will be new I've already changed tow links on the rear and the bushes are fine. I have new balljoints to go in so just leaves calipers and uprights at the rear which will be done at a later date or soon if I get a good ppi pay out I went for the standard rack as Matt and a few others suggested

[haggi961]

So onto steering, noticed a bit of play in the rack so..

New rack, raiser plates and ujs. Will the spending stop soon?

Have fun with the ujs 😀

My dad made one from a wheel he got for a birthday, mounted it on a wooden base and other stuff, il see if i can get a photo of it next time i see him.

[D-DAWG83]

Is the wheel from a Torro Rosso?

[The Batman]

It's from red bull front wheel can't remember which model at the moment though

[D-DAWG83]

Looks like an old one, maybe RB3ish, but thought STR carried on for a year or so more before switching to OZ same as RB. Looks sweet either way though

[The Batman]
