I spoke to Evan (SHG) yesterday. He doesnt have a date yet as they are due to test the one off slider they made on the racecar this weekend.

Im good friends with him so i will keep this updated. When i found out more

How do you know if you need to replace this? I'm fitting my rack riser soon. Could do this at the same time.

Jack one side up and twist the wheel that's in the air left to right.

Up and down play at the track rod bracket is an indication of wear.

Adam I would advise against the track rod riser bracket and it causes more toe in under compression when on track or driving hard. It may feel like bumpsteer is reduced but it basically dulls the steering down.

Best mod you can do is increase castor and or run zero toe in the front.

Toe out makes the car uneasy due to the design of the steering joint on the McPherson strut

I spoke to Evan from SHG about his sliders the other week and he had a quite a few ready to go.

If any one is interested PM me and I'll give you his details

Thanks for the info gents.

So you would be against fitting the rack riser Mike?

I don't track my car but I do like a fast road!
