Hello
Having just had my rack reconditioned , it seems a little long!! (As recent posts in the archives)
Can anyone give me the dimension from end of tie rod to end of tie rod on a rack that is off the car?
Thanks

Hi George
Is this the dimension you are looking for?

Thanks but its the complete end to end measurement ie the end of one tie rod to the end of the other tie rod on the other side on an assembled rack
The rack bar has been replaced and I want to check it is as original
Thanks

OK, I screwed up. I looked a a pair of racks and one had and end cut so I grabbed the other and I forgot that I had reinstalled a pair of spitfire iiner tie rod ends on it to keep all of the other pars in one location. anyway here is a 3rd rack that should be correct. It looks like 39 inches, give Brian Buckland a call and ask him, He did an article for the Club Lotus new letter a while ago and may be able to email you a copy of it.
