Cheers

the wings need to be trimmed alittle and you need a sportpack steering rack!

It's got a shorter lock to stop you turning the wheels through the inner wings. Much easier to fit lock reducer rings to your existing rack. KAD make these, they cost less than a tenner and are really easy to fit.

you dont need to make any alterations to the steering rack whatsoever.

Make sure all the suspension components are up to the job.

As anything that’s worn will affect the way the car handles.

Depends on the wheels and how much wing you want to cut away.
