AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArg

Now you are winding me up.:reallymad

You have been banging on about this steering on your car as long as I have been on here, both as a member and visitor as I am now.

Loads of peaple have given advice or tips on how to sort or where to look to cure your steering problems but obviously it has fallen on deaf ears.

You now want to spend god knows how much on getting a conversion done to cure what may be a simple and cheap repair. More money than sense me thinks.
I am sure Tim will do a good job if you wish to part with your cash.

How fast do you drive to Tescos etc.?

This 7 is polybushed all round & has had the alignment checked.

I take the point that it could most certainly be improved with proper adjustment, its not my 1st FB.  I just cant be arsed messing around with a set up that will still be slow, heavy & have 15 turns lock to lock (even when new!).

However, I do like the rest of the car & still think its the best looking of the 3 generations.

What\'s wrong with being creative?  Is it a purist
1st gen thing?
Now with added boost!  :burnout

Heres another thought. Why not go for a double wishbone setup, and get rid of the struts completely? OK its an awful lot more work, but5 the steering and suspension can be so much better.

you could do that by putting FD front end in but you dont want to make the front too much better than the back :)

Plus TII parts are cheeeeap
400 BHP - 650 KG\'s = 616 BHP Per Ton of Rotary Power

That\'s the way to do it! :Thumbsup!
