stay away from the racks, just get a new steering box. If you really want a rack get a whole new subframe like the 21st, AM, or DSE.

I don't have any experience with racks, but was looking into them for a while for my 68 Camaro. All of the threads and posts that I've read come down on flaming river pretty hard (seemingly for quality and installation issues), while people sung much more praise for Unisteer.

If you're set on a rack, they're probably a worthwhile place to look into.

Hope that helps :thumbsup:

I would agree with HotRod68. We sell Flaming River, but I would consider a good steering box and spend the rest of the money on something else. IMO Flaming River is more of a Street Rod Product. I have sold a number of racks but these have been installed on "cruiser" cars. You also have to consider header clearance.
