I have run this way for several years now and am generally satisfied with everything but the larger turning circle. I am considering keeping the setup I have but going back to the shorter stock steering arms to tighten the turning circle. Is anyone running Dale A's conversion with the stock steering arms?</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">If so are you able to use the Alpine tie rod ends from the conversion in the stock Tiger steering arms or is the taper on the bolt shaft different? Other than the fact that Alpine tie rod ends come in LH and RH versions are they the same as Tiger tie rod ends? I have test fitted a Tiger tie rod end on a spare Midget rack and the threads seem to be the same. Of course the inner tie rod shaft on the MG rack is shorter than the Tigers so I still need to use Dale A's adjustable coupler (which is desirable for alignment purposes).</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">Do the stock steering arms mount as originally oriented left and right or do you need to flip them from side to side like you do with the MGB steering arms in Dale A's conversion??</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">Any other issues I have not thought of?</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">I have measured the lock to lock travel in both the MG rack and the Tiger rack and they are the same. I trealize that the stock steering arms will negate the ackerman angle improvement, such as it is, in Dale A's kit mod. But my thinking is I am no worse off than stock and I like the much quicker lock to lock movement in the MG rack versus stock (2.7 turns vs 3.7?). Steering effort may go up I guess...?</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">Thanks in advance for all advice and experiences shared.</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body">Gene</div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div><div aria-label="Compose body"><br></div></div></body></html>
