I have a 92 mustang gt and recently bought the Team Z front k member kit with coilovers. While I was at it, I swapped to 95 gt front spindles so I can complete the front suspension and do the 5 lug conversion with the 95 cobra wheels. I already had a remanufactured power steering rack for the foxbody from CJponyparts part#RPK6 which is for 1985-1993 V8 mustangs. I also have the Maximum Motorsports steering shaft for 79-93 mustangs installed.
My problem is my turning radius. I took the old outer tie rods of my rack and counted the turns, 32. So I put them on the new rack, 32 turns. My steering radius is awful! I bet my wheels only turn about 1/3 or what they should. I know the factory wheels were 8 inch wide and now the cobra r wheels are 9 inch wide. I read that the sn95 rack would be an upgrade but I already have this rack and the steering shaft, I'd hate to drop more money into rebuying parts and not utilize what I already have. Should I use sn95 inner tie rods but I read that they're longer. Any help would be appreciated guys.
