Has anyone done the switch to a rack on an AWD yet?

Nobody on here. (It's a topic I would remember!)

I've been thinking about it. Anyone got a rack kicking around?

It's been done. I seem to recall bad angles and bump steer being a problem with it.

I was under a Chevy Avalanche recently, much beefier idler arm set up. Wonder what it would take to get that set up under an Astro.

I know someone here had issues with a 2wd and bump steer, but later determined it was most likely the parts he used. Who did one with an AWD?

I thought Larry (Rebel) did it years ago.

Do a member search for Rebel.

His most-active topic was Rack & Pinion Install.

See if that works for you.

Wasn't Rebel's on RWD?

To my knowledge the R&P has been done only on the RWD.
