Thanks Gae and Al. You couldn't write this script, I think. I'm sure others have had it worse and sooner or later it gets better. :cheers:

One good thing came out of the blown rack fitting - I put the reducer valve back on and waa-la! The steering feels heavier, firmer against the big front tires just like a muscle car should.

Sucks to be you lately!

Best I got is best of luck from here on out!

That really sucks Ron, it will be worth it in the end, chin up.

I'm there Bro. You will be too :D

Vince@Meanstreets 08-26-2014 10:24 PM

which fitting failed Ron.

The thing about problems is it makes you a smarter owner. You'll get through it.

My old boss use to say "New don't mean SH**. all of it was made by the lowest bidder and by a guy that hates his job" LOL

sometimes its true.

Ron in SoCal 08-26-2014 10:26 PM

That's a fact Vin.

The pressure fitting on the rack was a -6 o-ring fitting. Replaced it w 3/8s pipe.

Ron, get one of the TC series pumps listed on this page, and while you're at it, order one for me too. :lol:

Makes a lot of sense Vince.

Brilliant :idea: How many times did you hear that in recent weeks? :action-smiley-027:

That's all?:action-smiley-027:

Sorry to hear about the issues Ron. I had a few bugs to work out myself. Driveshaft, rear seal on the T56, new pinion yolk on my 12 bolt....AC not turning the radiator fans on...leaking PS pressure line...coolant blowing out the overflow.....etc.

The most important thing is that you keep a good attitude....like you said in one of your posts above. It's a project and there's going to be a shakedown period, and there WILL be issues. Just need to have the patience to work through them.

I'd bed you'd really like to get this thing out and take out your frustration by burning the tires off the rims right!?? :drive: And taking a video of course. Might even call it a "Burnout Video". :idea:
