Is their a difference between a 99-04 GT steering rack to a 03-04 SVT Cobras?

 

From what I remember it has the same ratio so it should be the same as a GT. I will check into it more later on when I find my book I have.

 

well find that book...

 

I really don't know much about the steering rack itself, but I know that the "T-bar" is different (better). I don't know what the T-bar is or what it does but I know it's better than regular. That being said, I also know that there is very little to be gained from getting a Cobra steering rack, unless you need a new one and I don't know the price differences. I read all this on Corner-Carvers, thoes people know thier ****.

 

Yeah from what I see here its the same as a GT rack. What's up with your cars steering rack?

Edit: OK I did some research and the rack is the same as GT. Even has the same part numbers.

 

yeah they are the same thing... In the cobra the bushing to the K-Mem. are harder.
and a price for a new one is like 180 something. I need to replace mine, its leaking...

Spike, u know of any junk yards around here with any wrecked gt's?

 

In Bithlo which is the town around the drag strip there are a lot of junkyards. Go to google and search for junkyards with the area code 32828.

 

i know where bithlo is.... ill do some looking around

 

U pull and pay is in winter haven i think, JB's in bithlo....

 

the 2003/2004 Cobra strg rack IS different than the base, GT & Mach 1 strg racks.....

 

Whats the difference?

 

but do they have 99-04 gt's sitting on their lot?

 

iirc, steering ratio....I've sold quite a few Cobra racks to customers wth GT's, over the years, so I know for a fact that they are different


also the Terminator uses different rack bushings, steering shaft along wth different outer tie rods than the other models....

 

the ratio now is like 15:7:1 instead of the previous 15:0:1 ratio.

Hey Randy i dont know if youll know theis but when i back up both my front tires look like this // \\.. but they go back to normal when i pull forwards. do you know the cause of this?

 

not really but I'll try an help, what rack is in your car now and is it lowered?

 

ahhahahahah is it lowered... the son of a bitch cut 2 coils off the STOCK springs lol

 

Like I was saying..... lol

 

I didn't read where you said anything about the differences between Cobra's and non's in your post, so Im not sure what your gettin' at????

 

its still the factory rack, and the cars droped 1.5"

 

ahahahahahaha to bad i never had this problem before.. cars been lowered like that for 3 years beeotch and its never done this before.....

 

Son of a bitch, it doesn't say any of that in my books and manuals that I have.

 

it didnt say its doing that b/c its lowered, you just have a unique way of lowering.. BEEOTCH

 

buy better books?

 

In the 4th post. I didn't hit the nail on the head but I stated that the Cobra rack was different than a non-cobra. I was just making fun of how Spike and 03_GT concluded that it was the same after I said that it was different. Your information > mine.

 

Its weird that I get the same part number for the rack for GT and Cobra models.

 

aha, just goes to show you "dont believe everything you read"

always look for professional advice

 

iirc and I dont have any books in front of me, Im going off memory, the "Terminator" racks have a stamp code of "ZR" and the others have the code "ZY"
