thinking of removing my stock power steering system for a rack n pinion. Anyone out there have any experience with Flaming River brand or Randalls Rack? Is the swap worth it?

68 mustang 302 4 speed.

No on Flaming rivers rack. I like unisteers better than the above mentioned. Hells yes it's worth it.

I did a manual Unisteer from Summit for $775 shipped, well worth it and easy to do.

Hi,
+1.... I agree, it is definitely worth it for the precision. I have a manual F/R rack for sale, as I changed out my entire front end for a manual TCP system. I didn't have any problems with the F/R in my 64.5. It worked fine with my TRY-Ys, and "Z" bar clutch actuating system.
But, this is my experience.
Your choice will be dependent, in part, on what systems you are running.
Good Luck on your choice.

Anyone have experience with Randall's Rack Power Steering system? I'd like to know how it drives, turning radius, power steering road feel, etc...
