A Rack & Pinion on a straight axle? Yes, it is now possible, this is Cross Steer® from Unisteer, a unit is specifically for 1928-1934 Ford street rods. This innovative design steers off one side, creating very little bump steer that would occur using a traditional rack & pinion. There is no play in the rack travel, as it is smooth and consistent through out the length of its travel. This means that Cross Steer® eliminates tight spots and loose spots so common with conventional steering boxes.
