    Question Mustang II rack

     



    I have a 36 chevy low cab , I'm going to run a dropped I beam axle and haipins on the front and was going to go with a drag link . Well the other day I started thinking about using a Mustang II rack and wasn't sure if it would work ???
    So have any of you guys done this ??? will it work ??? or will it cause bump steer ??? or should I just go with my original plan ??? I was thinking of putting it behind the axle not up front.

    Made by Uni-Steer, Speedway Motors and a bunch of other suppliers handle them.

    I have a uni-steer set up on my coupe and love it , but the steering arms I have on this front end don't have the second hole for the cross steer and I gave up trying to find any other steering arms at a reasonable price or that would work. I thought that maybe I could use the mustang rack , plus they're cheap .

    I believe that to run a full R&P on a straight axle, you have to attach the R&P to the axle. A thing of beauty, it is not. Call Unisteer and ask if there is an affordable 2-hole steering arm.
