Rack and pinion for 65 C10 drag truck?
2 Attachment(s)
Hey all, I've got and building a 65 C10 short bed stepside. It's got a Gen 1 355 cid. sbc, 8.5: cr, Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads, Torker 2 intake
twin 63 mm turbos air to air cooler, coilovers front and rear, wilwood slotted and drilled discs up front and aerospace disc in the rears, its a back half ladder bar, dana 60 w/ spool. 35 spline gun drilled axles. 4.56 gear, 8.50 cage (getting built) C02 Holley high flow boost control, air shifter w/ a Holley sniper Xflow 1375 kit. it's got 15X15X30 rear slicks and skinny front runners. Its making aprox. 750 or so HP. Holley efi is running timing control on a hyperspark ignition system. With that being said, I am looking for a manual rack and pinion. I've been searching for literally hours and come up with but kiss. I find power racks all over the place but as far as a manual rack goes......... I mide as well be pulling my own wisdom teeth out with a vice grips so, I am reaching out to the community to see what they have come up with or know what, where, and who to contact about this conundrum I always seem to get into. Any of you guys/gals put one in a 60-66 C10 pickup? and what's the difference between a panel truck frame and a pickup frame? I've found manual for panel trucks but thats about it. well, or bagged trucks (and a lot of em lol) Ant help would be sweeter than the lady up the block at this point although she is pretty nice lol Thanks for reading Soda Can Dan |

Nice truck :thumbs:
As far as steering is concerned, there is absolutely no difference between a Suburban/Panel frame and a C10,20 or 30 frame. |

Back when we raced, we used opel gt r&p on everthing we built..requires some minor fab work ,but it's a nice compact manual unit

I had a Mustang II rack on my old stock style front suspension. I have a Pinto style rack on there now. When setting up a R&P, the bump steer is very important. I didn't set mine up correctly the first time.
