- Mon Nov 12, 2007 8:19 pm #29588 yeah, but I was saying next time you are gonna have it out, or even 1/2 way out for a new clutch, I'd take it all out and do it the right way.

For as much shit as you've gotten for this, I gotta say thanks for posting and showing all the noobs what not to do :thumb:

And for the rest of us, you've given us a good shot of entertainment here today :hehe:

- Mon Nov 12, 2007 11:09 pm #29608 Your wheels will not lock, but if you leave lines open, dirt will get into the rack and it will wear out and your steering will get sloppy.

rip out everything power steering related. there should be 3 holes on the rack. loop the left and right holes together, then add a tube with a breather on the middle hole. As long as there is some lubricant in the rack, it will not rear out and get sloppy.

Or instead of the breather on the center hole, run the tube to the bottom of a small resivior, anfd then you will be able to monitor the fluid level to madke sure there is always fluid. Since i don't drive my eg alot, I just did the breather method, and I will have to check from time to time and add a little bit of fluid into the rack.

- Tue Nov 13, 2007 12:08 am #29621 [quote="teal_dx"]why is your radiator crooked and the overflow tank on the other side of the bay?[/quote

my brother went into a curb long time ago. the support is all gone to hell.. im suprised i even somehow managed to line my lights like that..

and the coolant overflow tank is over there because i cut my intake cuz it was way too low before.. and the filter was getting in the way of the overflow tank fitting properly.. so i just moved it

im honestly not really into looks much anymore..

for all i care i could have a pink steering wheel that says rice on it..

i care nowdays more how it performs... as i said im dont w/ extiroior/looks...
