afternoon,
I've been offered a 340 steering rack for my 360 glt, will it bolt straight in or what!?!?
cheers, Chris

Bottom section of column is different lengths. So not a direct fit.!

ohhh grim!
Are there any combinations of the two that would work? like 360 collumn with a 340 rack!?
One of the seals has gone in my power system, so i dunno what to do!

Is that the case for both PAS and non PAS though? Surely non PAS 360's have the same racks as 340's340GLT wrote:Bottom section of column is different lengths. So not a direct fit.!

sorry for all the questions, but would the rack from a 340 alone fit a 360 collumn?

No, the shaft coming out of the rack is longer on a 360, Steve...but can be un-bolted and swapped.
You can fit any rack to any model (in theory...clearances are a different matter) with the right combination of bits - Rack, shaft attached to rack, lower section of steering column, and upper UJ (inside the car).
