I'm at a crossroads with my TR3 restoration. The body has been removed and the frame has been reconditioned. I removed every front suspension part and reconditioned all the metal and bought a complete suspension rebuild kit(bushings,grommets,upper ball joints,trunnions etc.) I even bought a spring loaded adjusting screw from England, that they state takes most of the play out of the steering. My problem is, while I have the body already off and I'm redoing the front end anyways, I've been considering converting to a bolt on rack and pinion steering system. I know where I can purchase the kit, but it's not cheap and I am on a tight budget with this restoration. Has anyone out there done this conversion and is it really that much better then a complete front end rebuild. This car will be a weekend driver with some short weekend overnights during the summer. I'm really at a standstill with my restoration, until I decide, should I go with the conversion or not. All feedback and opinions will be greatly appreciated. thanks /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
