i like the cad drawings and we can tell what you do for a living lol      it does appear to have pos camber on the left wheel and a little toe out but i am sure you will finetune that in you build. really shouldn't with a-arms, i wondered how tricky it would be to make the box fit the current susp cradle.  i like the idea of ps but how are you going to drive the pump for the howe rack?

Yea the arms are equal length. And the vertical dimension on the hubs is 2" taller than on the chassis. Giving some camber but ruling out the fold over that happens at the bottom of the stroke.

I might revisit that when drawing the new outer bearing carriers.

I'm just using the rack without any of the power stuff on it.
Works awesome.

really, i would've thought that would've been harder to turn vs. a stock manual rack..... good to know.  what made you decide to try the power rack as a manual?

how much wheel travel do you have w/o limit straps in the rear? how much camber is that 2" creating for you? is it mostly pos or neg or how much of both?  just curious  i know that on my front end with the spindle 1/2" taller it creates neg 3* of camber. that is with or w/o un equeal length a arms.

only difference for power steering is the gear bar, has ends that go out each side with holes for the cylinder brackets.

Real travel is 18 if I remember correct. Haven't put any thought to it since assembling it. It doesn't have any weird handling characteristics.

fixed it for ya.

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.
