Quick Steering: Perrin Super Steer
http://www.perrinperformance.com/p/187
Anyone tried these? Looks like a cut price alternative to installing a quicker rack... |
Should work ok, but I wonder how insurers will see it?

Clever idea - putting the trackrod closer to the hub centre. Buts its going to make it twitchy: I would expect a quick rack to be a variable rack and pinion to prevent twitchyness near the centre position . Although they could be just a uniformed pitched racks, so would be no better.
Also be sure to use plenty of anti-seize compound on the track rod threads...aluminium trackrod ends + steel trackrods = big problems in the future next time the tracking needs adjusting. |
Indeed, fitting a genuine Subaru 13:1 would probably be easier from that point of view.
The perrin system is really quite a lot cheaper though. |

Sorry - just had to be said!:Whatever_ JohnD |
From my experience having many perrin parts over the years imho their parts are of the highest quality. I love the idea of this new part and would give it a go.
