I have a ''full'' race car, so I want to sit as low as possible (low center of gravity and improved feeling with the car), look where my sholder is compared to the window
The steering colomn has to come down alot! It asks for some extra strenght in the original shackle and in the dashboard 'beam'.
Beam reinforcement
Making a adjusable steering bricket (I need quick release steering to get in the seat...)
Found a pipe with the same diamater
welding some plates to handle the radial forces on the steering colomn, burned my left arm *&%$% but it was worth it.
Result so far, still fully demountable :)
The steering colomn is still to long, but I have to wait for the quick release before I can cut it.
In the meantime (waiting for carparts!) greased the bearings.
I think its pretty up to date now
Don't hisitate to ask some questions or give some tips!
