Hi guys,

I'm looking at getting a batch of steering rack adaptors made so that you can run rose joints and a spacer under the steering arms to help alleviate bump steer.

I just wanted to know what kind of price you'd be willing to pay for JUST a pair of turnbuckles.

Thanks

I bought a set from McGil http://www.mcgillmotorsports.co.uk/index.p...d&productId=156 but the stud is not as long as I would have liked. But I guess that's the sort of price you need to aim at.

I hadn't seen the turnbuckles from McGill before. As said though, I'm a little unsure on quality at that price. For a steering component, I'd rather pay extra.

Mondo sport do a kit that includes some billet steering arms at £250.

Ive tried the mcgill ms studded rods ends and the tollerances were very slack due to the steel on steel construction.

I'd happily pay a tenner for a couple of turnbuckles
