    Default KE70 box to rack and pinion bracket

    instead of cutting identical bracket from a original rack and pinion crossmember, is there any way we can fabricate the rack and pinion mount? any photos about how this can be done?
    cheers..

    it is possible to make them but probly alot more time consuming than just cutting the mounts off a ke70 xmember.

    cheers

    you could potentially cut the mounts or unbolt mounts from any car that has similar style rack... so it is not just limited to cutting off KE70's... can make, have seen bolt on alloy ones made up, but... easier and simpler to use original.. unless you want to change the design to reduce compliance etc?
