Mark (smokey mow) Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Ford Escort Mk1 / Mk2 Steering Rack Approx 2.8-2.9 turns lock to lock, M14x2.0 thread to ends. Bought new from my local garage but never fitted and has sat in the back of my garage for the last two years (so a bit of dust and a couple of scratches). Not sure of the make but marked with the numbers 0306 29 where one of the rack mounts clamp it. Yours for £35 or £45 if you’d like it posted. PM or email me via contact button below if you're interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammy Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Interested in this - but not sure how I can tell if it fits my car - I think I have metric track rod ends (cortina MK4) , but I've heard of long/short stems etc - can you advise ? Is it a reconned rack or a new one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
