Front End & Steering Assembly

Trial fitted the front end assemblies and steering rack.

The alignment of the wishbones needed adjustment (modification).

Fitted the steering column and checked the travel and it up

All this equipment needs to be removed to allow the fitting of the side body panels.

The steering rack mountings supplied by GBS were replaced with some 'sexy' billet aluminium units supplied by Rally designs.
