Re: Rack and Pinion
Nice build. I attempted to flip my original ezgo rack and the one I bought to make my right side drive work. I ran into clearance issues with both because of my air bag setup.

Re: Rack and Pinion
I was able to get the front end all welded up and installed the air bags this past weekend. I hooked up the shop air and everything moves pretty good. I'll need to tweak the toe just a bit if I decide to raise the ride height but for now everything is straight up and down at 4" grown clearance.
I've got the rack and pinion setup designed on paper but I'll have to see how that works out once I have it in hand on Thursday. |

Re: Rack and Pinion
Enjoying your build especially the pics! Curious. What is the end goal? Racing, I presume, but why the right hand drive, Racing clockwise?

As far as the right hand drive, I figured if I was going to build something I might as well go all out. |

Re: Rack and Pinion
This might be a silly question, when mounting the rack in front, when you turn the steering wheel to the left the wheels will turn to the right and vise versa, how are you getting around this?

Re: Rack and Pinion
You can flip the rack and pinion over, so that it does the reverse.

It'll sit completely on the frame when I lay it out. [emoji41]

Re: Rack and Pinion
I'm interested in that height control. I don't plan on riding all the way aired up.
