Where have people put the steering rack in this format? Its got me stumped!

I did think about using a mk2 Escort or Capri rack, on a lower cross member, but the steering arms are to high up.

Can you turn a mini disk brake drive hub upside down, so the steering arm is on the bottom... or are the offsets on the upper ball joint and lower ball joint different?

Putting it infront of the engine, and having the steering arm going forwards would mean steering left would make the car go right and vice versa would it not?

I don't think I can see it going further down or further up from where it is because the gearbox and tunnel are right in the way...

Thanks for reading!

If they use a mk2 escort rack then they use either sierra or cortina or capri, something rwd ford to match the ford steering rack. They don't use a mixture as it would be like you say too high and turn the wrong way
