This design was conceived for our RSX touring car and is now available for purchase. Features include 3\/8\" thick steel construction with 2\" I.D to comply with SCCA, NASA, and other sanctioning bodies. Rather than the typical protruding tow hooks on the market, it is welded to the unibody in place of the factory loop. This orientation is far less prone to damage which might otherwise render it useless in the event of contact.

First, the factory grease that was used left a lot to be desired. Between inconsistent application on the assembly line, and the high heat coming off the exhaust manifold, we find the factory grease to be in poor condition when servicing racks. Second, the design of the OEM slider is minimal at best. Considering the huge forces applied to the steering rack especially during track use, there are only 4 small pads that contact the rack housing. These 4 contact points are responsible for keeping the inner tie rod bracket traveling on a smooth flat plane, prevent it from twisting, and to also keep the inner rack bar from rotating which will affect the lash of the rack and pinion gear teeth either causing loose steering or binding of the gears.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe addressed these points of failure by looking at the design of a new OEM slider and the rack housing itself.
