I need someone with a R1128 a good eye and a tape measure?
As you may be are aware, I’m having trouble with my Rii28 based three wheelers steering. I think it’s something to do with the poisoning of the steering rack Malcolm set me on the track of the car suffering from creating bump steer. After swotting up on this, I think he’s hit the nail on the head.
As the chassis is home made I’m having difficulty checking the ride height is set as specified or using the rule of thumb principles for adjusting the steering rack.
The upshot is that I need datum points to work from. These being the, R1128, distance from the chassis lower suspension fixing bolt to the bottom of the chassis, so I can set the ride height and the distance from the top mounting bolt to the centre of the rack on a X Y axis.
I used a couple of Malcolm’s photos, to illustrate what measurements I need.
Also a few of how the rack is mounted at present. “I’ve put them in My album as I can’t work out how to put them in this post”.
With this data I can then have some chance to workout whether the rack is in the correct place.
Many thanks in advance Steve I
