I am in the process of fitting 6mm spacers under the steering rack as a common remedy for geometry issues.
Has anyone had issues with the power steering flexi pipes hitting the cross brace above them on the offside When it is lifted the said 6mm?

Thanks

No Mat nothing there.....Also the bolts are only just long enough without spacers, so I need to get longer bolts. So they must never have been fitted. Perhaps mine was a chassis they found in a long forgotten corner of the factory .......

I'm trying to make it less twitchy. I presume this will sort it after a geo set up?
