There were a large number of failures of these racks in the UK on both road and competition cars. For MOSS to say that there was only one is simply untrue.<br>
<br>
I personally had TWO failures of brand new racks about 18 months apart. Both of these failures involved the pinion housing separating from the rack tube at high speed in very dangerous circumstances.<br>
<br>
I would NOT recommend the use of a MOSS rack to anyone, whether for road or competition use because the manufacturing quality is poor and the material quality is similarly inadequate. The information that I was given at a meeting face to face with MOSS in london have me the impression that some testing had been done, but the solution to the problem really had not been found (ie do the job properly).<br>
<br>
I now use a custom made rack which has a single piece pinion housing and rack tube made from billet aluminium. These are being made in the UK. I will never use a steering rack supplied by MOSS again.<br>
<br>
