mk1/mk2 steering rack
Hi all
i've got an escort steering rack, and am not sure if its a mk1 or mk2
do the threads for the track rod ends differ between a mk1 and mk2, as the new track rod ends i brought seem a sloppy fit on the threads (i thought it
was a mk2 rack)
cheers
Ian

Mk 2 is metric 14mm and mk1 is imperial.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Very easy to tell the -- MK2 threads are very coarse -- the 1/2" UNF threads on the MK1 are quite fine.

mk2 are metric, M14 x 2.0; count the threads in 20 mm, there should be 10 of them, or multiples thereof (2.0 is the pitch)
