Camira Power Steering Rack to HR Front end

[ek wazza]

I was told recently that you can use a holden camira power steering rack which can be fitted to a hr front end without too much hassle...has anyone ever done this or heard of it being done and does anyone have pics??????

[FB MAD]

It must be something that has been done before by someone ,somewhere ,as an engineer I spoke to in Dubbo a couple of years back was waffling on about fitting a Camira Blah Blah Balh Power Steering rack to a HR Front end.

I guess he must have passed an early holden with one of these in it to know that it would fit .

i have heard it before don't know where, there was an EK on ebay a while back that said it had a suzuki power rack on it
in a way a rack is a rack have a look and do some measuring of the HR front and go scouting around the wreckers
there's another but could be hard to find TC/TD cortina as they used to convert these to put power steer on LH/LX toranas

Camira racks are a strange looking thing - and could be adapted to pretty much any front end as the tie rods are positioned next to each other rather than at the end of the rack like a commodore , etc - therefore bump steer is minimised as long as you mount it in the right spot.

Blacky give Blacks Racks in Margaret River? a call as I think they have this one sorted other than that go and see Hank Robertson at Street Rod Services in Rockingham as he has used them in a few Rods, Surlys has one I think, it's no good ringing him as he is deaf as a post

[Blacky]

The racks that Blacks Racks use are similar to Camira ones but he buys them new in the US.

The Camira racks are classed as a centre steer rack and are very easy to modify to fit
