Suspension and steering

STEERING RACK CONVERSION TR2-3B

Revington TR has developed an ingenious steering rack conversion. This kit, developed in conjunction with our famous suspension kits, provides very light steering and removes inherent bump steer.

Also due to a change in the steering arms, supplied with the kit on exchange, the new system provides toe-out on turns rather than toe in which the original system exhibits. This ensures the car 'turns in' to corners rather than ploughing straight on. A deposit is charged pending the return of your steering arms, the cost of which will be advised at the time of purchase should you not be able to send us your steering arms before purchase.

Important: The position of the steering rack, up or down effects bump steer, our steering rack is positioned so that bump steer is eliminated on a perfect chassis. With the rack so positioned, the nose protruding from the front of the engine must be removed, as the rack will need to occupy this space. An electric fan kit must therefore be used along with a bolt and washer set to bolt the pulley to the crank, order:

RTR1483-A	Fan Kit
RTR1027K	Washer/Bolt Set

TR2-3 owners with non-split columns can use the above kit, but will need an upper column from a TR3A split column type. If you do not have one, we can provide an inner and outer set. Order RTR3315K Upper column set. This set is for rack use only as it does not have a hole up the middle to accommodate the original stator tube. In addition it is necessary to utilize some of the TR3A column support parts, bolted to the bulkhead. To make life easier, we offer these as a kit as follows:

RTR3406LK Support kit LHD.
RTR3406RK Support kit RHD.

There are electrical issues to consider too as the original turn signal and horn arrangement cannot be retained. See The Electrical section for suggestions on alternatives.
