Laodicea Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Hey I cant post in the how to section...but they have the wrong 240 rack setup link for me there.... should be http://www.26liter.us/forum/index.php?topic=5866.0 BTW...I guess i need to ask permission to post in there or what??

ucw458 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 You should be able to post there. Others do. The way you have that rack mounted makes me nervous. All that leverage tugging those bolts back and forth. Imagine those bolts coming loose on the road. Maybe it will be ok, but if it was my car I would want the rack mount welded in.

What about having a brace running over the subframe as a support for the plate? kinda like the peice of metal that bolts on top of the rack to keep it in position.

Laodicea Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Well been on my car two years...Lock nuts have not loosen. Been on Killaphils car...for over a yeart all is fine. Yeah they prob can get loose but shouldn't be overnight. I like it cause I can remove it kinda easily...having two large bolts going through the frame horizontally would be even better than having 6 bolts for easy removal...but what if those two bolts became loose?? 6 bolts coming loose verses 2? IKD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laodicea Posted February 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 are you selling as a complete bolt in kit? Only the mounting plate/cradles...you have to figure out the chopping and welding of the steering column to mate to the 240 u-joint to pinion...cut the inner tie rods from the 300zx down to size...etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo Cary Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Id like to do this mod, i thought of a good way to use the O.E. coupler or atleast the one BC made which is what im using now. Cut the shaft off the gear box and weld that to a shaft with a female 240 end to connect it to the rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got flamed for saying that in bc's coupler posts.... This would be an excellent use for that coupler in my opinion.
