  1. To gt the steering arm off the rack there is split tube pin that u need to drill out in order to unwind the arm off the rack to replace the steering arm

    If its the bottom arm ball joint az far az im aware its cast into the arm so u'll hav to replace whole bottom arm (i could be wrong on this tho)

    I do how ever hav spare bottom arms which i wnt need az iv put adjustable camber 1's in

  2. I hav a few mates wiv rotaries running b1600 diffs and they are definitly nt gentle on them and they hav survived a hidding for a long time

    I dropped a little skid in my drivway yesturday and suspect i broke another escort axle az only had 1 spining u would thnk that wiv a lockd diff both would spin but nt yesturday

    If the b1600 breaks it breaks i guess so far for my conversion its only cost me about $110 that includes buying 3 diffs selling 1 and getting discs and s3 rx7 calipers also hav made caliper mounts for free

    which i intend on piking up this saturday cant wait to get it all machined up and fitted into my esky az i am totally sick of changing broken axles
