    I have a rack & pinion on my car. Granted my whole front suspension set up is a bit different, but I mounted the rack to the axle itself and I use a slip joint out of a '95 Mustang's steering linkeage (at least I think that's where I got it ). The slip joint allows the axle and rack to move without affecting the steering. So I have no bump steer. I can't imagine it'd work well without the slipjoint. I don't have major mileage on my car, but so far its working out really well!
