I'm placing the steering rack on the 'floor' of the chassis and considering the advantages of using a steering box.

Has anyone had any experience of using the steering box, or any photos of how it was carried out ???

Yeah thanks Big D ..... I have been reading those comments and they seem to rate the u-joint as a much better method of connecting the rack to the column than the steering box.

I was just wondering if anyone knew of any UK distributors of the apex u-joint, as it seems to be a better design than the standard universal joint ???
