Hi I have a sierra steering column and an escort rack.does anyone have any pictures or drawings for the bit in the middle. The sierra clamp fits
escort rack but is it better to buy an escort to sierra joint from rally design .phil

DO NOT buy the Rally design couplings. They are made of chocolate and start developing play in less than 100 miles..............ask me how I know how
!
Buy the heavy duty versions from Motorsport tools, they are more expensive but they are actually fit for purpose.
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

Did the bearings and put metal gear set in it too. Ended up selling it as I got a much bigger machine.
