auto cross, lmao never!
19 pounds exactly
madman, well i didn't go that route, had my chassis guy do acustom one with a wilwood pinto rack. as far as a kit goes, FJ SMith has good customer service, and there products look awesome. I bought a used alt relocate kit, that was madman's and i had to slightly "improve it" so i wouldn't shred another brand new belt.
just buy the rack from a speed shop, goto a chassis guy and have one put together, any good chassis guy can put it together than what you will pay for a kit, that is why i went that route!
hard to turn only when you come to a stop and then go, other wise no problems when you are driving
there is a bit of play in my steering with the wilwood, i guess that is normal

I think the Pinto is a 16:1 ratio whereas the stocker is like 12:1. I may have those #s reversed, but I'm almost positive that's what they are. It's not that tough to move. I can still turn the wheel with one hand while outside of the car (moved it around the shop twice this week doing this).
