    Thanks for the tutorial. Are Nissan racks not centered from the factory? I'm wondering why there are two different sizes of spacer in your kit..

    What if both sides are recessed? Do you take both recessed measurements and make them equal?

    I just installed a new rack on my camry but didnt center the rack before installing. If i take the boots off the inner tie rods and do the measurements will i be able to center the rack this way. For the rack to be centered the measurements have to be the same on each side correct? Or do i have to take the whole rack out and center it? Any help would be very much appreciated.

    • @gktech

      It can be done by removing the boots.

    I’m getting even measurements on the rack but when turning the steering wheel I’m getting more turns to the right vs the left

      Loosen steering joint, center the wheels then the steering wheel and tighten

      The pinion was prolly put in with rack off center.
      Was it a remanufactured rack?

  • @wallycaliente

    Sorry for the dumb question but what if in the first place my steering rack is not centered? I leave it centered and then i remove the steering wheel and correct it and thats it?

      Providing you are measuring correctly it will work for all chassis.

    Pointless gadgets to Correct a Very minor proble.
    Better 'fixed' By simply repositioning the UJ to the rack pinio.
    Free AND Much easier as well as the mechanically superior solution.
