    Default are ra28 and ra40 crossmembers the same?

    hey guys,

    i am doin a rack and pinion conversion - but have not finished yet.

    i need to move house and hence the car - so it needs a crossmember.

    i had a ra40 one out the back, but it is very difficelt to fit the control arms to it - are these different in some way?

    i do have a ta23 one i was about to mail of to someone - i may have to fit that for the weekend then mail it off.

    Cheers
    Stew

    Hey box head, try Paul. I think when they done power steering conversion they fabricated a new cross member from scratch. Then a again ring Anthony directly and he could answer it for you.
