  1. Just curious, are you running deletes now? Have you listened to in-car and drive-by shots to confirm you can live with them? Asking bc even the 5" Nameless on a catted turboback are super drone-y...
  2. Rack went in smoothly on my 06 OBXT limited; steering heavier at low speeds (wife displeased) and very tight/true at high speed. No dead zone on center, very quick responses to inputs. No VDC on ‘06 so not an issue though others report problems. Mechanic (The Shop in Norwalk, CT) said went in easy, ~3/4” thread left available on tie rods (more than expected, possibly due to 1.5” drop on coilovers?) All in all very pleased since old rack was weeping like crazy and this was same price as oroginal OEM.

  4. Thanks - that solves the issue. Talking to my mechanic about this rack swap for existing leaky OEM rack while the engine is out getting rebuilt...seems like the right thing to do, and given its a non-VDC car I don't expect any issues...
  5. Quick follow-up on this statement: "PLEASE NOTE: The OBXT uses subframe spacers requiring a longer u-joint. OBXT owners can use the Perrin Steering Lockdown Kit (PSP-SUS-565), cut and weld in a length of steel rod, or remove the body lift (a project in itself)." Will the existing OBXT oem u-joint mate up with this, or MUST I swap in the modified Perrin version to make this work? Thanks...
