The Fox body rack, and pinion works well from what have read. Watch the details as a matched pump/rack work so much better.

The guy I saw do it online used wood blocks to get his level against the frame along with it being in the right plane across the time rods. Then cut tube when the right length was determined.

Only bad news in have heard from it. Is that it is sometimes not up to the task of larger rims with stickier tires. Although very few, and far between. Guys probably raced alot or were sitting turning the wheels, and that it may not of liked it.

Other then that supposedly tightens up steering much better then traditional performance parts.
