2.0 turns versus 2.25 ????
Just in the midst of changing my stering rack.
Have noticed that my old rack was 2.25 turns (regular rack) and the rebuilt that i have is 2.0 turns lock to lock...... is it going to be a noticeable difference??? i guess the rebuild must be a Z51 rack.......
Any comments, concerns??????

I love it. It might take a little getting used to being used to the 2.25 rack.

Hmm. wonder how I could tell which I have? I don't have the Z51 option but can say it takes very little movement to make the car turn. I can make it bounce between the lines on the road with hardley moving the steering wheel. This is the only vette that I've driven.

I noticed a BIIIG difference between a normal steering gear, and a Z51/2 steering gear. I BEARLY have to move my steering wheel to make a lane change, and it's EASY to pitch it.

Nice Rack! :lol: but it is noticable....it seems a little stiffer when turning and takes very little effort!!!
so...no problems/complaints here :cheers:
