The inner pivot points look close.

Giggity.

There is tons of left and right movement with this rack.

If my measurements come out the way I think they will-custom inner and outers and a joint from the column to the rack will make this an easy swap.

Hahahahahaha...FR-S. Manual rack. No assist.


Customer came in after slamming a curb. Replaced tons of parts. Cash.
My guess was to avoid totaling the car. Bill was huge.

After the car left, this thing was just sitting outside next to the scrap bin. Yoink!
Looked like a close fit when I saw it. Who knew it would be this close?

Doesn't look close at all... Looks like the pivot points are so far wider than the lca pivots.

Yes. And plus... its a 210. One handed steering all day as it is. But what ever. As long as you dont put square headlights in it I dont care.

Square headlights on a hatch would be terrible... on a 2dr sedan, perfect!

Elaborate. I think you just spoiled my game plan.

Lca pivot and balljoint picot should be equal distance/angle to the inner and outer tie rod pivot points.minamize bump steer. That being said, every singel 510 with power steering has an ill fitted rack.
